Something That Fills Me With Hope
As most of you know these 3 are my biological grandchildren. There are 6 others that call me Grandma but I don't get to see them very often anymore. The two oldest girls are just off doing their own thing and the 4 that belong to our 'adopted' daughter are busy with life and I don't see them or even talk to them much. But these 3 fill me with hope. Hope for today, tomorrow, and all the years ahead. They are the best. I am happy they are mine. I am grateful they still want to spend time with this old lady! The teen years can be difficult (especially with girls, lol) and we still have a tight relationship. I love you Harley, Darian, and Paige. You give me hope.
You can tell by their smiles they are well adjusted kids. So many get snarly at that age and become so insular. Lucky you, lucky them :) Just saying 'hi'
ReplyDeleteOh believe me they still get snarly at times. But they are all good kids
DeleteYou aren't old, Paula :) They are beautiful and handsome both inside and out!

Sometimes it is not the years; it's the miles. And I have put on a lot of miles lately :)

DeleteThis photo is so endearing, Paula. I love how their love fills you with hope!
ReplyDeleteI do too, Myra!
DeleteI think having a relationship with grandparents is SO important and you generally don't realize that until it's too late....
ReplyDeleteMy paternal grandparents were already deceased when I was growing up. And my maternal grandmother was a WITCH and grandpa was a PUSSY, so they were my example of what NOT to do!
