Doughnuts with Grandpa

Grandpa and his girl
Today Emily had Doughnuts with Grandpa day at preschool, and they both had a blast. Grandpa got to her school around 8 this morning, and Emily got to lead him to the gym where it was all set up for yummies! Emily had a huge doughnut with chocolate and coconut and milk, while Grandpa enjoyed an apple fritter with his coffee! Grandpa said, "WOW, what a difference a year makes." Last year Miss Emily just wanted to run around, but today she sat patiently at the table and ate. Then she asked grandpa if she could go play on the scooters. She wanted to have grandpa watch her. After they did this for a while, she told grandpa it was time to go back to class...yes, Emily said this - there was no set schedule. Then she wanted grandpa to watch her do play dough. Then it was time for hugs and kisses, and time for grandpa to go. My dad said Emily was so different than last year, and he also said he couldn't be more proud!! Ahh...that was enough to make me cry a little happy tears! She has come so far! Dad also stated that a lot of the adults at Emily's school came up to him and told him that, since she has had her hearing aids, they have all noticed a huge change in her. More confidence, talking more, hearing better, more verbal with her friends, etc.! Praise God!
Enjoy the pictures from today! Thanks Dad for taking these, so mommy can see the treasured memories my girl made today! Love you grandpa!
Love,
Kathy
