In Honour of Grandparents ....

Well, I have been thinking of how very blessed I am to have my three delightful grandchildren, and I thought that perhaps it would be rather nice to devote a post to Grandparents.  I hope you enjoy it!

GRANDMA'S FLOWERS

Each time I go to Grandma's place

To spend some summer hours,

She lets me pick a big bouquet

Of pretty garden flowers.

I've learned the names of almost all

The flowers Grandma grows:

Carnation, iris, pansy, phlox

Petunia, and rose.

The sweet pea is my favorite;

It has a lovely smell.

The flower Grandma likes the best

Is Canterbury bell.

I think my Grandma's wonderful

And hope that when I'm grown,

I'll have a "green thumb" just like hers

And flowers of my own.

GRANDPARENTS

Grandparents bestow upon their grandchildren

The strength and wisdom that time

And experience have given them.

Grandchildren bless their Grandparents

With a youthful vitality and innocence

That help them stay young at heart forever.

Together they create a chain of love

Linking the past with the future.

The chain may lengthen,

But it will never part...

GRANDMOTHER'S TALENT

A grandmother has a special talent-

She always knows just what to do

To make her grandchildren happy

And to show she loves them, too.

At the family get-togethers,

She's the first person to look for-

She can entertain small children for hours,

And they always keep asking for more.

You can tell when a grandmother's teasing

By the twinkle that shines in her eyes-

She's an expert at settling problems,

For she's loving, patient and wise.

Her grandchildren always admire her,

Even when they are grown-

They always feel proud and happy

To claim Grandmother as their own!

GRANDMA'S HUGS ARE MADE OF LOVE!

Everything my grandma does

is something special made with love.

She take time to add the extra touch

that says, "I love you very much."

She fixes hurts with a kiss and smile

and tell good stories grandma-style.

It's warm and cozy on her lap

for secret telling or a nap.

And when I say my prayer at night,

I ask God to bless and hold her tight.

Cause when it comes to giving hugs

my grandma's arms are filled with love!

GRANDPA'S TOOL SHED

Grandpa's tool shed is a special place,

Full of mystery and delight,

Where little kids can come and watch

While Grandpa builds a kite.

Each day before the sunset,

Grandpa is always there,

The sound of his saw and hammer

Filling the evening air.

Grandpa can fix anything

And make it look brand-new-

He fixes toy cars and airplanes,

Trucks and trailers, too.

There are many happy moments

Pleasant to recall,

But Grandpa in his tool shed

Is the nicest one of all.

GRANDMOTHER

A grandmother who's special

Who's caring and sincere.

Who's always took good care of me

And always brought good cheer.

A grandmother who's loving

Who's patient and kind.

Who's always made me smile

And always on my mind.

A grandmother who's sweet

Who's gentle and polite.

Who's always made me laugh

After a scary night.

You'll always be the best

No matter where you are.

You'll always be in my heart

And in God's hands..

"I Love You Grandmother"
