My friend wrote to thank us for the fun night we had on Saturday and ended it with "Parents are awesome!" She was referencing the fact that my mom and dad had kept the kids for us Saturday AND Sunday night. She is so right!
So, a note to my children:
Your grandparents have been an amazing example for us. You don't know how many times they have come and helped out at just the right moment. When they keep you overnight, it reenergizes me, allows us to get some extra sleep, and reminds us what it's like to be just a couple. Your grandparents love you so unconditionally and so passionately. As their child, it's fun for me to watch their relationship with you and all of their grandchildren. They are amazing. So, my promise to you when you have your own little munchkins running around is to give back to you what my parents have given to me. You will find out that even after you have your own family, there is a part of you that will always need your parents. They give you something no one else can. My friend was so right--parents are awesome!
