I haven't written in awhile as, like most of us, feeling in a funk. This piece was easy and rewarding to write. Please feel free to add comments to anything I have missed or your own observations.
What being a grandma means to me:
·
Seeing the circle of life unfold right before my
very eyes
·
Watching the growth of an individual knowing the
child wouldn’t be there without me giving birth to their parent
· Having the chance to see my child develop into a
loving caring nurturing parent
·
Finding the laughter of a child and the tears
forever change me and melt my heart
·
Finding that the depth of love has no bounds
·
Being able to play with a child I love and give
them back when I tire!
·
Hearing the nickname you are given (grandma,
gammie, nana, etc) and it never getting old
·
Possessing the wisdom of years and having an
attentive ear to your lessons
·
Being able to step back when discipline is
needed and forward for all the accomplishments
· Adoring eyes are mutual
fja Learning some of the best things in life come in small packages
Seeing seeds take root again with lots of love and acts of kindness
· Knowing I am leaving a lovely legacy of my life behind
