All Day with G

Michael and I are so lucky that G was able to come in and save the day after Debra sadly got sick! I had report card conferences and Michael has just started a new job so there was no way either of us could get out of work today so G came to the rescue! I was a bit OCD and went through every little detail with G. Clearly he raised three kids incredibly well so he would have been fine even without my detailed list. I'm not sure why I was so spastic! Thankfully, he took my intensity with a grain of salt and had an amazing day with Ethan!

Check out pictures of their adventures--from 110 4th Avenue to Prospect Park, From Tea Lounge to the Botanical Gardens, from The Children's Library to Brooklyn Museum--Ethan had a full day of culture and love with Grandpa.

People say you often don't take time to recognize how lucky you are. Today I fully embrace my gratitude for my two incredible parents who raised Yogi, Ravi, and me with such a strong sense of values and who are translating those same values and utter love to Ethan. E is clearly a lucky boy. Along with this overwhelming sense of gratitude comes a bit of sadness that Babs isn't here to do the same. Michael often talks about how he wishes he could have seen Babs with his own kids and I feel the same void. I know she's looking down and laughing at each ridiculous/hilarious moment of Ethan's growth/development, but she would have also provided such a support system full of joy, love, and wisdom. We'll keep telling Ethan stories, but Babs, we miss you...
