When I was small
   You were the one who smiled
      And called out my name
         You took me by the hand
            And set me on your lap
               And we laughed
                  And we played
                     And I knew that I was loved

Through all these years
   You have constantly been there
      To encourage me
         You took me by my heart
            And you inspired me
               And we hoped
                  And we prayed
                     And I knew that you were loved

But, now I'm grown
   And you are even older
      And I call out your name
         And I take you by the hand
            And I sit next to you
               And we laugh
                  And we play
                     And you know that you are loved
 
I am so glad
   That you are my grandparent
      Happy Grandparents Day!

Thank you David,
 
Being a grandparent myself, I thought it would be nice to recognize all the grandparents that so many seem to not recognize.
 
God bless,

I just thought I would put it out there because I have only known of this day for a few years. It has actually been designated as 'grandparents day' for thirty years now.
