This week I am thankful for grandparents.
Both James' parents and my parents have spent some time with Haydon in the past week that has allowed me to go and be more than a mom, and that is a very good thing. On Saturday, I dropped him off with Barb and Tony and went for a stroll down Locke St, which was so nice. Amazing what an hour of looking at pretty things can do :)
My folks came over on Tuesday, had dinner with Haydon and I, then stayed with him after he went to bed so that I could go to book club. (Sidenote - we discussed The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, which I HIGHLY recommend!). Again, so good to go and be with adults for a night of good company, good discussion, and good food.
Thanks to our parents for parenting us, and supporting us as we parent!
Agreed. Also so good when they live close by and can be involved on a weekly basis with their grandchildren.
