A grandpa is so important for a kid growing up.  AND, since you're retired, you can attend all those school functions and bring-your-grandpop-to-school day, etc.   :)

Sadly they live in Las Vegas, but are here often.  It is a 4.5 hour drive from here.
Santa photos soon, ho ho ho.
You are right Julles. I never had one. Heck I met my father when I was 20.

We took  Father & Son photos at the bus station :'(

I think it's good for kids to have exposure to relatives or people of all ages. There is a lot of experience and wisdom for them to gain by being around them. I think it helps them handle and face their own aging to have been around older people while they are growing up.

So many families miss out on so much of that because they aren't living near family. It's sad. I am so lucky, all our kids and their families and even our 4 nephews and their families live within an hour drive.

Esther,
You are indeed lucky!
My kids are in Chicago & Colorado.
WE are in Connecticut. Far, Far away.
At least they visit us tho. And we go to see them, a couple of time per year.
