Grandparent Love





Little A is beyond lucky to have all four grandparents plus a great grandmother living, all in good health and fairly active.

Great Grandma is 80 years his senior, having celebrated her milestone birthday just a month ahead of Little A's entrance into the world. While he can't communicate with speech, Little A has a special bond with GGM, shown in the gentle way he treats her compared to his boisterous behaviour in general, and since Big A and I travel often, he gets to spend more time with her and with my parents as they like him to spend weekends and Halloween breaks with them. 

Big A's parents have their hands full with their only granddaughter living with them as her parents work in Singapore, but they do come by when they can to spend some time with Little A. 

My parents have seven grandchildren, of which Little A is second to youngest. These days we only get together for birthdays, Easter, Mother's Day, and Christmas, but each family tries to spend as much time as they can with them. We hope Little A can make lasting memories with his grandparents as we have done with ours.
