I think one of the greatest blessings as far as earthly things go that I have enjoyed in this life has been my grandchildren. Now I love and loved my four children. They have certainly been a blessing to me in every way imagineable. My husband as well. However there is something special about grandchildren. I think part of it is I don’t have to raise them. I can enjoy the best parts of them and they also get to see and enjoy the best parts of me!
Yesterday my oldest granddaughter sang a short solo in our church. It was so sweet. It is the Christmas season and part of that is hearing the young ones sing in church services. She is almost 11 and is changing in so many ways right before my eyes. What a wonderful gift God has bestowed on each of us that allows us to see my grandchildren. There was a time I did not think I would know any of my grandchildren except for this lone one. He has been so merciful to me and allowed me to meet and enjoy 6 more after her. He is merciful and kind and His mercies are new every morning. Praise to Him and to Him all the glory!
