Hero Status

There are many kinds of heroes.

Some are Super Heroes!




Some are every day Heroes!


Have you heard of the category, "Grandmas who stay at our house after the baby is born" heroes?
In case you haven't, here is the Hero certificate.  And in case you can't tell by the picture, that's ME "sleeping" in the bed! (We all know how much one sleeps with a newborn in the same room)


Mr. Cy is in first grade.  His class had a writing assignment.  Cy wrote that his hero is:
"My Grandma" 
You are my hero because "You slept with my baby brother so he wonte be alone".  


Thanks Mr. Cy!  I hope I can live up to the hero status even when you're 13 years old!

    What a sweet and tender hearted little guy he is.
    And... he's correct.
    Grandma's (and grandpa's) are pretty special people!

    I think you have earned that award too! Sleeping with a newborn in the same room is not easy...as much as we are SO in love with them.

    And your grandson is one very appreciative and creative little boy!

    I couldn't have made it without my mom. My little ones each had a big dose of grandma when they were little and I'm so grateful for her patience with us. She beats Superman any day!

    Oh that is so sweet. I wish I would have had help like that when my babies were born. It was all my husband and myself. I would love to have had a hero.

    First of all: Mr. Cy is SO handsome!

    Second and equally important: that Hero Award is priceless! I hope I too can achieve hero status some day with my future grandkids!
