Grandchildren

Grandchildren are Heaven sent! I am the proud grandparent of two precious little ones. My regret is that I don't live close to them. Although technology allows us to be virtually with them every day, that is still not the same thing as caring for them, holding them and sharing laughs, tears, small and large mishaps and triumphs.

Our granddaughter, who's seven years old, reads to me over the phone maybe two or three times a week. I always says to her, "If you can't pronounce a word, just spell it out loud; we'll figure it out together." We've been doing this now for about three years. I can truly say now she is quite a reader and speller!

Our grandson is seven months old and he's quite the comedian already. He knows how to recognize funny situations. He laughs heartily at his family when they are caught up in some
compromising endeavors. He is a wonderful little tyke; he is blessed to have the love of capable and awesome parents, and a loving, doting big sister.
