Gran and Pa

I know it sounds silly, but I often wonder if you would love your family if they weren’t your family…now don’t get me wrong…I do love my family, but its just something I think about, however tonight I had that confirmed…well at least for my grandparents anyway. Tonight Gran and Pa came to visit me in Castlemaine and we had dinner at ‘New China’ the Chinese restaurant in town.

I have been really lucky to have been able to spend time with Gran and Pa pretty regularly as a kid, but I haven’t spent a lot of time with just me and them as I have gotten older. I mean I have seen them in passing or for a quick chat on Sunday mornings, but most long periods of time have been with mum and dad and/or the boys. And to be honest, I was a little bit anxious about how it would all work, but it was such a lovely night, and it made me realise again how much I love my Gran and Pa.

I think that the best thing about grandparents is just how much they love you…and how proud of you they are. It’s nice to feel so loved and be so encouraged. So I guess the whole point of this blog was just to say that I love my Gran and Pa and I am very very very glad they came to visit.

I guess that's just all part of the adventure!
