Ode to wonderful grandparents.

I am sure we all have people in our lives that we cannot imagine living without, but occasionally realize we completely take them for granted....at least I hope I am not the only one! I have recently realized just how blessed Brooke is to have all of her grandparents so involved in her life. I suppose I take it for granted because my grandparents have always been a big part of mine, but a friend mentioned earlier in the week how she wished her parents were more involved with her kids....I don't have that problem. I love and adore all of Brooke's grandparents and the way they each have their own way of teaching and having fun with her. SO, I wanted to share some cute pics of all of them individually and let you see a portion of how they bless our lives.

This is Paw, he always has a big ole hug, time to sit and listen or just cuddle and a way to make Brooke laugh, never before would I really have thought of Paw as so nurturing, but seeing him with Brooke has brought out so many sides to his wonderful personality.

This is Nana, she is a very talented, creative person who is willing to do almost anything Brooke asks of her. She hand makes creations for Brooke regularly and makes sure she learns new things about dirt, water hoses and so on. When Brooke is at Nana and Paw's house she can pretty much play with anything, but at the same time she manages to teach her something with whatever she grabs.

This is Granny, she might have actually been scared to go down this slide. ;o) My mother has always been such an amazing woman, but when you see your own mother with your own child you experience feelings you never have before. She too hand makes Brooke wonderful goodies, and loves to teach her things I haven't thought of....like how to use every single kitchen utensil in the cabinet.

This is Grandad, just like all of the other grandparents I have completely seen a different side to my own Dad around my daughter. He is still a good discipinarian....when he knows I am looking ;o). My Dad finds the funniest things for Brooke, will sing to her with his amazing voice, and probably let her do anything short of things that might hurt her! He also, as you can see in this picture, is a total card that will do anything for a little giggle.

I love you guys and thanks for being in my child's life!
