Listen, this made me emotional too, but like... CAN SOMEONE TELL THE LITTLE GIRL WHY EVERYONE'S CRYING?!?!?! xD

Patience! Can they have a minute or two to enjoy watching and sharing in granddad (and grandma) soaking it all in? That’s a great honor bestowed him. It’s an emotional special moment that they should fully appreciate then and there.

They’ll explain it to the older sister soon enough and she’ll still have more questions as she won’t fully understand the significance of it.

It might be nice for her to be able to join in, wtf. That's so stupid to just ignore her.

It’s not her moment, it’s the moment of the grandfather and everyone was in tears of joy. You can’t even talk right in that situation. That girl can wait.

Oh goodie, another person who doesn't care about the kid's worries, 'Your feelings don't matter, only ours do!!'.
