Oh, but what a beautiful thing that you still have both your parents at 91. My mom would be 91 right now, but she died at 58 from pancreatic cancer.
I think that is why I miss her so much, even after all these years because her life was cut so short. She never met one of her great grandchildren, but boy was she a wonderful grandma to my kids. I learned from the best.

So be proud my friend, for every year that you see them with one of the kids, young or old. They will have have known true joy in their lifetime with the grandbabes. I am so happy you told me about them and God bless you all.

Thanks too for the beautiful words for mine. Now, that awkward little red head on the end of the couch is a raving beautiful red head of 21 years and turning heads all over. And isn't it funny that my youngest grandchild is 13 too. LOL. All the others are between those two. Thanks again. Love, Debi

You are truly blessed, my dear friend, and it shows in this beautiful tribute poem to your grandchildren.

"when they depart
I yearn for the next time
yet nature means growth
with growth comes distance..." I feel this stanza, Debi -- bigtime, although I have no grandchildren...

Touching sentiments, projecting love exchanged through memories: finding a charm and pleasing delights pertaining your conveyance. Realizing love is strange.

It is YOUR poetry of love, Debi.
And what are rules if not a challenge to us to break them when it needs to be done?
This is a beautiful poem and your love and affection shine through.

Here is a point for you to consider and ponder over. I know that you do not consider yourself to be perfect. Yet, these children who are descended from you appear to be perfect in every way. God is still wonderful is he not? His gifts are truly amazing.

That sounds like us and our great-grandchildren. All three of them live in East Tennessee, but that will soon change when my grandson and his family move back home. This is a wonderfully written poem. Best of luck with your writing! Have a great day, and God bless.

From a grandpa and great grandpa's heart, I thank you with all of this grandma's heart. I have always felt that there is something we never felt before when we had kids because I think we were too busy. Not that we didn't and still don't cherish our children, but with grands you have freedom and what a difference that makes. I had time for fun with mine.
I still have a 13 and a 14 year old, but the others are teens to two at 21 are the oldest. So we won't see new great grandkids in the near future so I will take your word for it, Mike. LOL. I can't wait tho.

Thanks for this lovely review, awesome sentiments and the honor of your six stars. I am touched and honored. Thanks again, my awesome friend.
Love, Debi

Hi Debi, I enjoyed this poem so much. Some of the words I liked are: A love so priceless, actually the entire poem. That is how I feel about my grandchildren. They are all grown now, but I will always cherish my time with them.

Showing a little familial love, aren't you girlie?
No shame in that, they are a beautiful clan of smiling babies.
Well done. If they are near enough to squeeze pictures like this keeps them near.
