Layout of youngest grandson

This is a layout I did of my youngest grandson and his reaction to finding his family waiting for him.

This photo was taken at Bishop Airport in Flint, after returning from a trip to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Tya asked me to watch Brian while they traveled to Sault Saint Marie for a Hockey Tournament that John was playing in. Because they were staying at a casino hotel, Brian would be limited to being in the room unless accompanied by an adult. She knew he would be bored. I agreed to keep him and told her that we would do something 'fun'. I realized that I had passes to Disney and enough frequent flyer miles for a free ticket. SOOOOOO, I booked us a stay at Disney World. We left a couple days after Brian's 7th Birthday and had a great time. When we returned to Flint, Brian was not aware that his family would be at the airport to greet us. When he saw them, it was not his mom OR his dad that he went to. He went straight to his brother John and said 'My buddy!" and began to cry. Well, needless to say there were very few dry eyes that were watching. Strangers were touched with the scene and shed a tear or two as well. And of course I dropped my bags and grabbed my camera to capture the moment through my tears.
