An Afternoon With My Granddaughter

My wife and daughter went on a shopping trip so I had the chance to get my granddaughter after school and take her out for dinner. She chose to go to a drive-thru and take it to the park. After enjoying dinner, she slid on the slide and and climbed on just about everything she could climb on! It was a wonder time!
Awesome shot

@amandal - I am hoping that she will feel the same way as you and my daughters felt about their time with their grandpas!

Smart girl...taking food to the park. Sounds like a grand time.

@danette - Oh it was! I felt almost like a kid on Christmas morning at the end of the day!

What a great time that sounds. Can't believe how fast she has grown! Lovely girl.

Grandpa seems to have more time and patience. Children love to show off and need someone to watch!

Wouldn't you love to be able to sit like that again! Bet she enjoyed spending time with Grandpa as much as Grandpa enjoyed it.

@milaniet - Oh I can still sit like that. It's just that if I do I can't jet out of that position! :-)

@maggiemae - I have heard it said that God allows us to be grandparents to make up for all the mistakes we made as parents!

Glad you had such a wonderful day with this sweet girl. I'm sure these moments add never forgotten tresures to our memories.

@maggiemae - Yes we did. Much of our parenting skills were learned by the way we saw our how our parents raised us along with a smidgen of how we saw our friends parents interacting with them. I only wish some of the "helps" that are available today were around when I was raising my daughters. The one thing I wish I could do over is that I didn't take my daughters on "dates", which I believe is a relatively new concept, like ten years ago, to teach them how they should expect to be treated by the opposite sex.

@skipt07 Thinking about that - I should have asked my sons for a date!

So lovely to have precious time together like that Skip. Your granddaughter is really growing up Skip.
