Grandmas

   If I were granted any wish,
  I'll tell you what I'd do,...
  I'd wish my kids were small again,
  for just a month or two.

    To hear their squeals of laughter,
  to watch them while they play.
  And when they ask me to join in,
  I'd NOT say "Not today."

    To hug again their chubby frame,
  to kiss away their tears,
  and cherish childhood innocences
  that's washed away the years.

    Then when it's story time again,
  I'd stay a little longer,
  to answer questions, sing the songs,
  so memories would be stronger.

But time is callous, wishes, myth,
  yet God in all his wisdom,
  has given me another chance
  before I join his kingdom.

    The face may not be just the same,
  the name is changed, 'tis true,
  but yet the smile that radiates,
  reminds me so of you.

    God must have known that Grandma
  would need a chance or two.
  For many little happy things
  she hadn't time to do.

    So God gave love to Grandmas
  to equal that before,
  that, in effect embraces
  those little lives she bore.

"THIS WAS SENT TO ME BY A VERY DEAR FRIEND. THANK YOU PATRICE, THIS IS VERY SWEET."

YOU KNOW I DON'T HAVE MY GRANDPARENTS ANYMORE.
THEY HAVE ALL GONE ON TO LIVE WITH JESUS, AND I MISS THEM VERY MUCH.
BUT YOU KNOW ONE DAY I KNOW I'LL SEE THEM ALL AGAIN. WHEN I REACH HEAVEN, THEY WILL ALL BE THERE.
OH WHAT A REUNION!!!! CAN YOU IMAGINE?
SUCH PEACE, SUCH JOY, TO SEE ALL OUR LOVED ONES AGAIN, BUT MOST OF ALL TO SEE OUR HEAVENLY FATHER!!!
PRAISE GOD, I CAN'T WAIT!!!
I'M ALREADY HOMESICK, AREN'T YOU?

BUT TILL THAT GLORIOUS REUNION, WE HAVE OUR OWN CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN TO LOVE AND WATCH OVER.
AND WE KNOW IN OUR HEARTS THAT 'OUR' GRANDPARENTS ARE UP THERE WATCHING OVER US ALL!!"CHERISH THE TIME YOU HAVE HERE ON EARTH WITH YOUR PRECIOUS BABIES, CAUSE JESUS IS COMING BACK FOR US SOME DAY.
AND I KNOW IT WON'T BE LONG.
SO IF YOU DON'T KNOW OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST, PLEASE GET TO KNOW HIM.
