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            thats 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 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 thos little lives she bore.                                          ...Author Unknown ~I am so very proud to say that my daughter and daughter-in-law are stay-at-home-Moms. Unfortunately, I was a single Mom from the time my children were six and four years old. There were so many times that I was so tired and I now look back with such regret of some of the speical moments I know I must have missed.  I'm so sorry Donya & Christopher.  You know how very much I love you both.  Thank you for the five beautiful grandbabies you have given me to love, hug, kiss, play with, read to, and spend time with!     BACK
