GRAND PARENTS - 'GETTING IT RIGHT'


                     "I went to the movies today with my Granddaughter, Rose. We saw 'How To 
                     Train Your Dragon 2'.  She laughed out loud so much. It was neat just to sit 
                     beside this little girl and watch her total rapture in the movie. We shared 2 
                     bags of popcorn and it was one of my best '1 hour and 30 minutes' I have 
                     had in a very long time.

                     When we walked out of the theater she asked, "What shall we do now Poppy?"

                     It's a neat feeling when you get it right - a number one."

What a great story!  It really is a thrill to make a difference in the lives of our grandchildren.   And the best thing is that our grandchildren speak into our lives just as much.  They love us unconditionally.  They speak unguarded truth to us - something an adult is much more reticent to do. 
What a tonic it is when we see their faces light up at the sight of us!

Our grandchildren grow up so quickly.  Make the most of all those precious moments and take lots of pics.
