Run Fox Run

We are at 67% Grandparent capacity for the month of January, having been visited by four out of six of Leda’s grandparents in the last few weeks. It’s been great fun watching Leda explore Northlandz, the Guggenheim, Rutgers, and Loantaka with Grandpa and Grandma Jane; no one but Grandpa Larry could’ve taken Leds to her first jazz show at Shanghai Jazz, and no one but Grandma Jane would’ve made sure she got a personal handshake from Winard Harper between sets. That week alone would’ve made January a fine, memorable month. We are still hearing about the choo-choos and having to explain that Grandpa and Grandma J. went back to California.

But wait…there’s more. Leda also got to spend a great day with Papa (while Mom and Grandma Lynn lunched and checked out Bill Nighy’s Broadway awesomeness in NYC), visit the gardens at Duke Farms with Grandma, swim with Papa, see the Natural History museum, make her own pizza, AND see Raybird and Papa in the same place at the same time (quashing rumors that they are actually the same person). She seemed to forgive them for not having brought the beach and her cousins with them. What a fantastic couple of weeks we’ve all had!

Still, we can do better. As Leda is fond of announcing, as if taunting her less-endowed friends, “I have 3 Grandmas,” and we hope to hit 100% using Grandparent telemetry soon. In the meantime, we will review the photos, and hope you like ‘em too.
