TBT- a silly moment captured

Real Estate Broker/Owner with Lane Realty Eatonton, GA Lake Sinclair, Milledgeville, 706-485-9668 GREC# 169695

I remember a tough no nonsense daddy from my childhood.  But becoming a "grand-diddy" as my Abigail calls him was a very daddy changing event. I have known my daddy loved me every minute of my life, but I would venture to say he loves my daughter more. Maybe I felt that way because for the first 12 years of her life when I wasn't married and it was Before Donald... my daddy was the one who played catch, went to her ball games and was her biggest male role model. I love many photos of Abigail and my daddy, but this one of him in a box with her on the floor is one of my favorite.

That is too precious.  Only a loving granddad would get in a box like that. LOL  :-)  How cute

The thing about grandkids is you get to have all the fun with a whole lot less responsibility.

At my house if a grandkid is naughty, it's because Nana didn't get spanked!

My adult kids have asked me "who are you? I don't remember you being like this growing up." Grandkids are special.

I love this photo!  Thank you for sharing your story with us.  You are right it is very different to be a grandparent.  So much more fun and less stressful.  When we have time with the grandchildren I do the things I wish I would have done with our children. The fun silly things that make them smile and say 'oh, Nana!' followed by a big hug.

Great photo. I am convinced that Dad AND Mom both loved the grandkids much more than me or my sisters.  When I got over that self-centered thought, it did come to my attention that Dad and Mom simply had much more time for the grandkids.  Apparently, so didn't your Dad. 

That is just such a neat photo.
