You may recall that I hope to take each of my grandchildren to Walt Disney World sometime while they are 9-years-old. I mentioned a few days ago about taking a trip with my dad; just my dad and me. It's special to have just that one-on-one time. I have enjoyed that with my children and now I hope to enjoy it with my grandchildren.
For my granddaughter Shelby, that trip was this past April. To say that I spoiled her is an understatement. I did. I admit it. She enjoyed the full treatment at the Bippity Boppity Boutique and had breakfast in the castle with Cinderella. She got to hug her favorite princess, Ariel and the two talked for a short while. She then made her wish on her Wishing Star. She was living her dream. At one point, she looked across the table at me and said, "Papa, this is the best time of my whole life."
Okay, I got a little choked with that. Then, and now.
But you know, as wonderful as all that was, this is what it is all about...
Smiles.
Laughter.
There are few joys that compare, or are greater than seeing a child smile or hearing them laugh. Whether it is in Walt Disney World or over a bowl of cereal in the kitchen, it doesn't get much better than this.
This is what it is all about.

Wonderful pictures! That is so special that you are able to take your grandchildren on one-on-one trips to Disney. I'm sure they will have those memories for a lifetime!

Awesome.
Thanks Amanda! I was a very special trip and I am looking forward to more to come. Thank you too George; just wish we could have had a chance to slow down and talk a bit.
