I had to run down to my Grandparents the day I received my Cattleya statue. I stopped at the post office before going there and just couldn't wait to get home to open it! Besides, my Grandpa was eagerly awaiting to see the statue I've been going on about for months.
He said it was amazing, but I'm not sure if he was referring to Cattleya or the statue itself, lol. He kept asking to hold her but I just couldn't risk it. It was a miracle that she didn't come broken and I didn't want to jinx it. Besides that, my Grandma wouldn't allow it (she wouldn't allow Grandpa to see her topless either), lol.
On a serious note: My Grandpa is going to be 89 this Tuesday. He's been through the war, a stroke, bladder cancer and open heart surgery at age 87. He truly is an amazing Grandpa, person, and fighter and I am proud to call him my hero. <3

MoolongTeaWow! I didn't even read the whole story yet, but this picture is already convincing me of everything! :D
Oh wow, picture of the month? Thanks so much for everything guys. I can only say wow at this point.
I printed out all your lovely comments and showed them to my Grandpa yesterday. He had a huge smile on his face the whole time he was reading them. He even had to ask if all these comments were for him. He's really amazed of all the attention this has got and says he really appreciates it. He also said "Wow, one minute I'm a lone 89 year old and now I'm suddenly important, aren't I?" Thanks for making my Grandpa feel so special... well, more special. <3
Aww that's so endearing :) Glad to see he appreciated our comments!
