Thankfully, Mary and Dave have stepped flawlessly into the role of grandparents. They were cheering louder than anyone else in the audience when Eloise finished her first dance recital. They were an hour early to the kindergarten art show last week, and then proceeded to stand beside Avery’s watercolor painting the entire time, proudly informing everyone who walked by that their granddaughter was the artist. Their love for the girls is so obvious, so unconditional, and I could never express to them how grateful I am for it.
