Grandchildren

Yep, it is true, I am the old lady who needs to go to Old Lady Anonymous like my son says which would explain that I am old enough to have four grandchildren. I don't suppose you have to be old to be a grandparent but in my case, it makes more sense to my kids.

I don't have the pleasure and blessing of seeing my grandchildren though. Two are boys, two are girls. oooo how I would love to buy lacy dresses and cowboy boots but I don't have that joy...yet....someday...I hope and pray.

In the meantime, until the day comes when I can see them face to face, love on them, read them stories and hold bugs they find and bring to me, dip my feet in the cold lake while holding their hand, sit on the porch and watch and listen to the thunder storms together....I send these words in the night breeze to rest with them, wherever they may be...

Hold on to Jesus

You're a little piece of heaven
You're a golden ray of light
And I wish I could protect you
From the worries of this life
But if there's one thing I could tell you
It's no matter what you do
Hold to Jesus
He's holding on to you

The world will try to tell you
That might is more than right
That beauty's on the outside
And being good's a losing fight
But remember what I've told you
Because the world will make you choose
Hold to Jesus
He's holding on to you

Hold on to Jesus
Cling to His love
Rest deep in His mercy
Whenever things get rough
Don't lose sight of His goodness
And don't ever doubt this truth
That when you hold on to Jesus
He's holding on to you

Hear me dear Jesus
Rock this little one to sleep
Keep her close when she's scared
And give her grace when she is weak
I know she'll stumble
But I know she'll make it through
If you hold to her just like
You said You'd do
Hold her Jesus
And she'll hold on tight to You

Jonathan, Dakota, Willow and Emily,

Grandma loves you
