GRANDPARENT'S DAY

Yesterday we had the privilege of attending Grandparent's Day at the Downer's Grove Christian School. The children had a beautiful program to begin with each class doing a skit or music - some were some were funny, some were spiritual, and some were a mixture. Really enjoyable. It's an annual event and I think we've made everyone since the boys started school.

After the formal program, students went back to their rooms while grandparents visited around, met teachers, explored the rooms, etc. The kids had to stay in their rooms and relax/play games/etc. until we "signed" them out or until school was officially dismissed. It is always a fun day. I remembered (unbelievable) to take pictures in each of their rooms, and a friend of Janice took a picture of all of us.

Sounds like it was a fun day.
We attended our first Grandparents' Day at Heritage Christian School in Indianapolis this year -- an inspiring, spirit-filled day.

I've tried to always remmember the following:

1. A grandparent remembers hundreds of "true" stories -- whether they happened or not.

2. What can even a small child manipulate? -- A grandparent!

3. Don't put your grandchildren down -- unless it's on your prayer list.
