Grandpa Chucks Birthday = BEST Letter Ever

We went to a great, kid friendly restaurant on Monday night to celebrate G'pa Chucks birthday. They had a kids section of toys, so the kids did great. Plus, it was a burger joint so fries are always a quick way to my kids hearts. Brooklyn actually declared at one point "This is a pickle and fry kind of night!!" If only anything made my heart skip a beat like a fry basket does for my kids :) Love the innocence.

Before we left Brooklyn drew a beautiful picture for his birthday card and then brought it over to me, asking me to write down what she wanted to say. This is verbatim what it said. To say this made us all smile, especially Grandpa, is an understatement. It got laughs and tears.

Dear Grandpa Chuck,
You are my favorite Grandpa. You have always been my favorite Grandpa. You have always loved me for joy. And Grandpa, you have an amazing heart. God, will you love Grandpa Chuck for always? Grandpa will you love God for always? I love your big heart. Now Grandpa, what do you like playing with me when you are at my house? Grandpa you are the favorite Grandpa of my whole life. Do you like to have fun and take me to Old McDonalds? So God, will you just love my Grandpa and take all his sin? You cleansed Grandpa Chucks heart from sin.
I love you.
Love Brooklyn

*** Dad, when you read this know that when I asked her what her birthday card would say to Papa it was that you are her favorite Papa of her life. She has a lot of love to go around for her peeps ;-)

It was a very fun night filled with lot's of bad for you food, kisses, smiles and laughs. Happy birthday "GWAMPA"! We are still two days later talking about cake and fries. In the words of Benny after we left "dat was fun gwampas birday!"
