Dad's going to visit next weekend.

Just got word that my Dad and his Wife will be paying us a brief visit next weekend. They can't bring presents, like that's what we want anyways) but they want to take us out for a nice dinner while in town. I am struggling to find a family place for a dinner for the holidays. lots of places will be booked for the holidays so it's not going to be easy. I am sure we'll figure something out though.
He also said he wants the 2 of us to meet for breakfast and have a heart to heart about our expectations in building a relationship from here so neither of us is hurt in the future. I really don't know what to make of this part. I have no expectations, but it seems to me that he needs this chat to put his mind at ease, so I will humor him. I just pray he will be pleasantly surprized by the lack of strings and baggage I am bringing to this new relationship. My thing is I want him to have a relationship with his grandkids. If we can talk a little here and there that is icing on the cake to be sure.
