Grandparents Day at SMG

February 4th was Grandparents Day at Ethan's school. Ethan was really lucky because he got to have both his Mimi and Abuela (my grandma) there with him that day. They got to go to mass and actually sit with their Grandparents that day. They don't usually let them sit with family at the school mass, they have to stay with their class. So, after mass the school hosted a lovely breakfast for the grandparents while the kids went on to class for a bit and the GPs could join up with them later.

A couple of days later they had donuts for the parents before school. No big production, no flowers, no balloons, none of those great little quiches that I love although I do understand it was just supposed to be donuts. However, come on, it's bad enough that the people who actually pay the tuition only get one stinking donut. And I do mean 1. They stamped your hand so you couldn't go back for more. Can we at least have some fan fare. Oh I digress.

Grandparents Day was great. They got to do a craft together and play a game. They also got to go to the Catholic book fair so they could squeeze some dough out of the GPs for a change. I'm kidding of course. Fun was had by all and I'm sooooooo glad my mom and Grandma got to be a part of Ethan's day to day stuff.

Saying goodbye!
