For the Grandparents . . .

Today I have been enjoying the scent from these beautiful Freisas.  I like to buy them at this time of year because they remind me of a very special person, my Grandad.  My Grandad passed away when I was quite young but the memories I have are all great ones.  Probably my most fond one is when he made me a school bag for my 5th birthday out of a hessian sack, with baling twine for the handle and with Rochelle spray painted in red on one side.  He told me he was getting me a school bag for my birthday - I wish I had a photo of the look on my face when he produced that! 

These days with a family of my own I get to see the amazing relationship my children have with all of their grandparents.  Its the most special bond.  I know the time they spend with our children will have a lasting impact.  So this post is a shout out to our grandparents, and all the grandparents out their for the lasting memories they are making with the younger generation! And don't forget to capture some of those special times on camera.
