Grandchildren

How children perceive their Grandparents...

1. A grandmother was telling her little granddaughter what her own childhood was like. "We used to skate outside on a pond. I had a swing made from a tire; it hung from a tree in our front yard. We rode our pony. We picked wild raspberries in the woods."

The little girl was wide-eyed, taking this all in. At last she said, "I sure wish I'd gotten to know you sooner!"

2. My grandson was visiting one day when he asked, "Grandma, do you know how you and God are alike?"

I mentally polished my halo and I said, "No, how are we alike?''

"You're both old," he replied.

3. A little girl was diligently pounding away on her grandfather's word processor. She told him she was writing a story.

"What's it about?" he asked.

"I don't know," she replied. "I can't read."

That is a really good one. The first one is the best. The sad thing is that I used to do all those things that the Grandma did. Thanks for the great smile this morning.

Having grand kids close by is the greatest blessing a grand parent can have. Thank you Lord, that all of mine live very close to us. I've got a hundred of these kinds of stories. Love 'em all.
