Joyous Tomorrows

I have been multi tasking lately.  In addition to my volunteer work, and taking care of business, I have been trying hard to fulfill my grandsons confidence in me.  Cowboy on the left and Scientist on the right My daughter had related to me earlier this summer that one of the boys had decided he was going to be a scientist, the older of the two (they are 6 months apart) said "well, what am I going to be?" Said the other, "You can be what ever you want to be."  I some how feel without knowing it he was quite profound.  "We can be what ever we want to be." At the end of August, it was announced by our scientist that GrandmomE was going to make his lab coat.  That was good.  I knew 2 months before Halloween, which is what we are striving for.  The older then decided I could make him a cowboy outfit.  I am so excited that I have finished both and am getting ready to do He Man outfits for the younger twins...a rush job it will be, and wings for...

Over the years somethings just don't change and I am glad.  For Valentines Day I received a card that was designed and made by my grandson's.  It reminded me of the cards I would make when I was in elementary school.  I looked in my keepsake box and found card that I had made when I was 8 for my mom and dad.  That made me think, what fun a scrapbook page would be, using the two cards made 2 generations and 52 years apart.  Sentiments are the same and the fun of making your own creation and giving it to someone you care about  is still a uplifting activity. Thank you my grandsons for being so special. Love GrandmomE Elements and paper are from Misty Belle

I was so surprised to open my mail box an find a card to me from my Coppertop granddaughter (the small redhead in the pink in the picture.)  I hurriedly got into the car and tore open the envelope.  Wonder of wonder's, she had made me a card and a small pieced heart square (a blanket for a weeeeee wee one); how my heart sang.  This little lady is so joyful and full of life that she carries you along with her.  It is all good.  She is a classic example of looking at the glass as half full.  If you can't tell I love this sweetie.  I now carry my card on  my dash board.  She is my little angel offering love and comfort to me when I feel tired and worn.  Inside she wrote the note "I hope your ankle is getting better"  Well it is, and with uplifting gifts of love like this it will get even better. I am blessed. (Don't think I leave the other girls out, not even...We spend time on the cell phone and emails.)   God is good to me...
