Default The Joy of Being a Grandparent

We just returned from a trip to Maui with our 13 year old granddaughter. She has been fascinated with whales since she was very young and we have tried for several years to have her go to Maui with us to see see the whales. She finally agreed this year and we had a wonderful trip and we greatly enjoyed our trip also. We saw many whales and they provided an awesome display for her. The joy is quite evident on her smile and that of my wife.

Great pictures and memories forever. If I would have known how much fun Grandkids are I would have had mine before I had kids.

I now know that grandkids are a reward for having children and great grandkids are fun too

The true joy of grandkids is, you can spoil the **** out of them and send them home!

Great pics and I envy you no end. My grandson just wants all my guns.

Thumbs up Sometimes........................

when you spoil them then send them home you get them back. These are my Grand Daughters last summer. Due to some unfortunate, but foreseeable circumstances, they are now living with me and my Wife. Wouldn't trade them for the world. Probably won't ever be able to take them to see actual whales but I think they have spotted a few in the clouds from time to time. Don't know what the dog is looking at.
Peace,
Gordon
