Special Day

Well I decided to leave work early today and go to Daniel's readers workshop at school. He told us they did a writing assignment for the class but did not give me any details. So I surprised him and showed up at school with Grammy. They had to read their assignment in front of the class and to a handful of other parents that attended. They had to write a memoir or make up a story. Daniel chose a memoir. Had I known, I would have first packed that classroom with more family members and second I would have brought tissues. He wrote a memory of Aunt Net! It was so cute and loving. His title was Grammy Greens pies. He told of her love for chocolate and how she snuck some to him before dinner and how she made pies and no one else make them like her because she was so special. He mentioned she was a grandmother to alot of kids- hmm Jen I think he meant that for you! LOL It was heart warming!! I am very very proud of him. I told him I wanted to keep that book and that I want to share with everybody. It was amazing. Aunt Net would have been proud of him as well. Just when you think those kids are not paying attention to what is going on around them or appreciate those we have the opportunity to love, it shows up in the last place you thought! I will be giving him a big hug tonight!
