Grandparents' Day

Along came the day for Grandparents' Day.... Oskar and I had talked about it several times during the last weeks - what should we see and do on the special day.

When I arrived at Oskar's school he met me with the greatest smile and told me that he had run as fast as he could from his class.

Lots of grandparents had already arrived, and I must admit that I felt young for once - not a bad feeling!

Oskar was so fine in his bright trousers and shirt - all dressed for the day. "I put it on for you" he told me, that sweet boy.

Oskar showed me the entire place and carefully told me what everything was. We had lemonade, buns and cakes. Played Monopoly, climbed the big climbing frame, made drawings of fish, took lots of rides on the slide and made a hideout from blankets....

In fact I'm sitting in the hideout in the picture, which Oskar wanted to take...

When the time was close to 14.00 the Grandparents' Day was over.....Oskar thought that I should stay a little longer, but I had to go as the rest of the grandparents left too.

I really had a wonderful day with this lovely, little, clever boy. When I returned home I was filled up with happy smiles and funny experiences.

I'm definitely ready to become a grandparent....in a few years that is ;0)

But I promised my own children, that I will never ever wear synthetic, boring dresses as some of the grandmothers did!!!!

  2. Det var en rigtig dejlig dag, Jeannette Mariae! Jeg elsker simpelthen at være blandt børn og savner mit job som pædagog SÅ meget!

    Det er en af mine yndlingskjoler og jeg har det smukkeste Marimekko stof liggende til 3 forskellige kjoler mere. Jeg skal bare lige have dem lavet ;0)

  4. Oskar er en dejlig dreng...jeg kunne også få helt lyst til en mere, Gitte!! Hvis jeg ikke var kørt galt havde vi bestemt været en familie på 5 ;0)

    Jeg var også glad for, at jeg havde solbriller på da han modtog mig....jeg blev simpelthen så rørt over hans glæde.

  5. I really love that last part of your post. So funny! You will be a wonderful grandparent...even if you had synthetic, boring dresses. But it's better not to wear those ;)

  7. Oh, Claudia - how sweet of you :0)

    I just think that there are too many grandparents which dress so they look a lot older than they really are...

    Oskar is a handsome boy indeed, Christine and I'm proud to be his friend :0)
