Visit from Grandma

Grandma came to visit for a few days.  It's her annual trek by, not that she's full time living in FL.  It was a very nice gesture this year, given that we all had the trip to Mexcio, us without the kids, for a family wedding.  She could have easily decided this year was too much.  Demi gave her an out too.  But she still came.  She came in time to see Coco's first scrimmage.  We all went out to eat after.
     Caz was great during the visit.  He played cards with Grandma.  He showed off his artwork from the past year.  He spent a lot of time talking with her.  Coco only had limited time but made the most of it.  Grandma brought Caz to work.  I think that was a bit of a reality check for her. One of her youngest grandchildren is now working.
     It's important for the boys to connect with her.  They don't get as much of an opportunity.  Obviously, being located so close to my parents and family, they are very close with my side.  They need to know Demi's side.  This was a successful visit for that.
