I am thankful for my Grandmas and Grandpas.
I have been blessed with wonderful grandparents.
My grandma Ada passed away 6 years ago today, my great grandma Potts passed away almost 4 years ago.
I have my grandpa Harvey who is quite exceptional for a man in his mid-eighties. He always seems to know the right things to say in difficult situations, he has all (and I mean all) the latest technological gadgets, he bounces back from surgeries like nobody you've ever seen, and he loves all 5 of his children and their spouses, all 17 of his grandchildren, and all 10 of his great grandchildren (although he may have a hard time keeping all those kiddos straight). Our family is so blessed to have him as our example of Godly man.
I also have my grandma Rae and Grandpa Pete. They have been such a blessing to our family My grandma has been available to watch the girls on a weekly basis. My grandpa will stop anything to play with my girls when we stop by for a visit. They help us out with all kinds of things - from helping me with my sewing machine to putting a bed together. My girls love them so much. It is so adorable to watch them run to be swooped up into a hug when they see them.
I love that my girls have so many godly examples to watch as they grow up.
This almost made me cry. I really miss my grandparents (with Grandpa McRae being the only one left and I barely ever see him). I'm so glad that you have wonderful grandparents around as a regular part of your life and that they get to be a part of the girls lives too. You are VERY blessed!!!
