But the next best thing is watching other people feel that same way about Gram. My eyes well up watching family and friends light up over him. I got to experience this today at church. Our friends Emily and Clay love Gram, and I love to watch them love Gram. They both get so excited to hold him and play with him. Looking across the room today at both of them holding Gram, so into him made my heart swell. All three of them had huge smiles on their faces which automatically brought one to mine.
I can't express my gratitude of knowing Gram is so loved, not only by Dustin and I, but my our family and friends as well. I love getting to share parenting with so many other amazing moms and dads. I love getting to be a part of their children's lives and know that Gram is so blessed by their involvement in his. Not everyone has multiple grandparents that care so much about them, but Gram does. He has aunts and uncles that delight in him just as much as the rest of us. What a lucky kid!
Oh, my cup runneth over, it runs and runs and runs!!
