Today my heart is filled with thankfulness as I remember a wonderful day eight years ago which was; "Show Love to Grandma Day!" All three boys sat down at the table and started drawing hearts and flowers to make pictures for me, to say, "I love you!" Even my youngest grandson (two years old) wanted to get in on it all . . . he had me draw the flowers, then he colored them!
My middle grandson (four years old) asked me to show him how to draw flowers, then he drew a bunch and colored them with a sparkly purple pencil . . . because "girls" like sparkly purple! My oldest grandson (seven years old) drew angels, hearts and flowers on his picture and signed his drawing with; "Love" at the top of his drawing. Then he put his drawing on the refrigerator - where we also put his youngest brother's drawing and my middle grandson said he wanted his drawing to go in my Bible, so I will see it all week! I love being grandma to these three sweet boys!Hugs, kisses and, "I love you" were abundant, and this grandma had a very happy heart! I love my grandsons; they are such amazing gifts from the hand of God and I am ever so thankful for them!
Yes, all of this is part of the joy of being a grandma - and I love this part for sure!
Did I mention I love being grandma? Well, I most certainly do!
Did I mention I love being grandma? Well, I most certainly do!
These memories - and the ones we continue to build each week when the boys are at my house - fill my heart with so much thankfulness, so today on Thanksgiving - and every day - I am reminded I have so very much for which to be thankful!
