Today I'm thankful for Alex being able to have his grandparents in his life.  I didn't live near family while I was growing up.  My paternal grandmother/family lived in California, and my Maternal family was in Delaware.  I saw my grandmothers a couple times a year when I was a child. I didn't get the chance to really get to know my maternal family until I was older, in college. Alex's school had Grandparent's Day, and then later that evening, we went to his other Grandma's house for dinner. He had an all around good day with his grandparents.  Having family nearby has so many benefits.
