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.
