Pick Me Up
What is the one word or phrase that immediately cheers you up when you hear it?
~~~~~~~~
Grandchildren! Need I say more? I am ‘head over heels’ in love with my grandchildren. They bring out the best in me. There is nothing I wouldn’t do for them, within my means. They are my lights; my world.
There is a reason they call them ‘grand’. If you are a young mother, mother, or a grandmother, think or remember back to when your children were first born and you were ‘head over heels’ in love with them. Multiply that by 100. That is what being a grandmother feels like.
I have written on this subject many times, but I will say it again. I was blessed to be able to see the birth of four of my six grandchildren. I even got to cut the cord on my second oldest granddaughter. It is such a miracle. I cried every time.
If I’m looking a little down and out, just say the word ‘grandchildren’, and you will immediately see a smile come to my face.
How very lovely 🙂

Thank you so much for this post! I do the same thing when someone asks about my grandchildren; as we used to say when they lived with me: I love ya so much it burns my guts!” Cheers!
