One Generation to Another: On the Blessings of Granparents

[image error] One of my favorite things about summer:The kids get to spend more time with their grandparents.

Grandparents have fresh patience, fresh ideas, and irrational, wonderful love for these children of mine.
Grandparents have cool toys:


Grandpas put up with 1000 questions from my question-askers.




Grandpas make the babies laugh.

Grandpas make the big kids, laugh, too,even at their own expense.

Grandpas drive trucks, scooters, boats, and 4-wheelers.


Grandparents think up great gameslike water-swinging:

Grandmas take time to sit in the sun,and watch the flotilla go by.

Grandmas teach children about flowers,and get excited over painted rocks.


Thank you, God, for the blessing of grandparents!---------------------------------
