Bubble has three grandads (so this is the first of 3 Gratefuls). She owes a good many things (and each different) to each of them. The above image is of Bubble and her Grandad through my mum's marriage. My step-father. He is not related to her by blood but he loves her (like he loves me) as his own and does all the 'grandad' things with her that her other two grandads are unable to. She owes stability and security to him. He is the kind of man that is a rock in a storm, a safe harbour. He will always be there for her and I am very grateful for him.
What a lovely post. Does he read your blog? I bet he'd be absolutely chuffed to know what you have written about him. x
ReplyDeleteHe sounds like a wonderful Grandad - and man.

That's so lovely. Miss A spent a few weeks over summer with her Poppy (my Dad, who lives 2,000 kms away) It was beautiful to see the bond that they share, despite the distance, and it made me love him even more not just for being my Dad, but the type of Poppy that he is to her. xx
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful photo - what a lovely Grandad. He sounds very special. Lucky you and lucky Bubble.
ReplyDeleteHow blessed you both are :)
ReplyDeleteHow lovely for you, and for Bubble, to have such a postive relationship and view of your step-father. 'Step' relationships are so often portrayed in a negative light, thanks for sharing the postives!
ReplyDeleteEvery little girl needs a safe harbour to shelter life's storms. Bubble is a very lucky little girl that her's is her Grandad. x
