This story comes from one of my grandparent friends named Al.  He was in a Grandparent Group with me. 
 
Grandpa Marve and his granddaughter Sara had a weekly ritual. Each Saturday morning they would walk down to the local restaurant and have breakfast. They had their favorite booth right next to the door. 

Invariably, some of Grandpa's friends would stop by and tell Sara what a nice girl she was, and how lucky Grandpa was to have such a nice little girl! 

This always made Sara feel so happy to be with her Grandpa.   

One day after Saturday Breakfast, Sara said, "I sure like coming here Grandpa with you, "When I am with you Grandpa, Everybody loves me!"
