Hooray for Grandkids!
It is absolutely true what everyone says about being a Grandparent.....it is really THE BEST!! Let me share just a little bit of the JOY felt in the last few days from spending a little time with the cutest grandkids in the world. I had just arrived at my Son and Daughter-in-law's home to babysit for a little while.....I had quickly put a hair clip in my hair to hold back my bangs right before I headed to their house. I just wanted my hair out of the way, did not even glance in a mirror. My 2 1/2 year old grandson climbed up on the couch beside me, touched my hair and said, "Cute Hair, Grandma!" and so once again I melted over this cute little guy. He said it several more times, in a very sweet genuine way. A few minutes later, he said to me, "I missed you Grandma....." Grandpa and I had just taken him to get a happy meal the night before. I said "I missed you, too!" and then he said "I love you, Grandma!" and repeated missing me and loving me several times. I can't help but tell him that I love him all the time. Really, how many people in your life show and tell you so sweetly that they love you? Those babies really have the unconditional love we all should strive for. This same little cute guy went up to his dad the other day and said, (I think they told me his hands were on his hips) "Dad, I am going to give you a lesson. Jesus wants us to be Happy!" What else do we need to know? He has it all figured out already. (shout out for the good parents here) Really, he has it figured out.......and tries to teach us all this truth...Jesus wants us to be Happy. And if I remember right, he finished with "the end" walked away from his Dad, and then came back and repeated his "lesson" again....ahhhh....what a cutie!
