The great thing about watching my parents with Hunter is that I have a WHOLE new appreciation for how great of parents they were and continue to be. I have always respected them and known that I am very fortunate to have them as parents, and there was never any doubt that they loved me more than anything....but it wasn't until I got to see them interact with Hunter that I really GOT it!
"I'm going to pick you up"
"And body slam you!" [Hunter loves this as much as his Mommy used to]
MiMi letting Hunter "help" her take Skylar outside. I am only imagine the number of things that Mom let me "help" with growing up just to make me feel special!
The great thing about watching Hunter and Uncle Lance and Aunt B interacting is just knowing how much Hunter is loved.

Look at me
I can jump SO high!
WOW
Having fun with Aunt B, helping O'ma open her presents
The great thing about O'ma is that she gets to be O'ma to Hunter too. How special it is that Hunter gets to hang out with her, play with her, and love her. I pray he always remembers how important she is and how much she loves him. I was not fortunate enough to know my great-grandparents, so I think it is truly a blessing that O'ma and Hunter have each other!
It just doesn't get much better than that!
What a joy he has been!
