While Connor and I were off exploring Niagara Falls and it's attractions at the end of May [see post below], MaKenna had a very special day herself. It is an annual tradition that MaKenna's teachers do every year towards the end of the school year. They host a Grandparent's Tea! Mimi made the trip out to our house and met Rick to travel to the school. MaKenna had an extra special treat because her teachers indulged her by making sure that MaKenna was able to have a guest reader; the event that was missed when she was sick during her Star Student week. The timing was perfect and when Mimi arrived in MaKenna's classroom, she became the Guest Reader!
Then it was off to the Tea. This is a picture that MaKenna's teacher took of them! I love this pic, just love the pride that shows on MaKenna's face. It was a nice day for MaKenna because she didn't have to share her Mimi with her, brother, Mom or Dad! I think that it is awesome that MaKenna's teachers recognize just how important Grandparents and extended family is to our children.

OMG I cannot believe how much MaKenna looks like you! She is too adorable for words! And her Mimi looks like she enjoyed herself thoroughly as well! What a great idea to have a tea! And I'm also glad they remembered that MaKenna lost out on the guest reader when she was sick....sounds like she's enjoying her year end! Hope we get to see each other soon. I miss you! xo
Your mom is still such a beautiful woman- inside and out. Nice to see her again. What a beautiful blog, Jess.
love, aunt sarah
