Grandparents
Grandchildren are the crowning glory of the aged parents are the pride of their children. Proverbs 17:6
When grandparents and parents play on the same team kids come out ahead. Here are just a few ideas I have learned as a grandfather.
Grandparents don’t have all the answers but we have learned a few of the right questions…
Grandparents can’t keep up like Mom and Dad but we can help the kids to learn to slow down and wait…
Mom and Dad make sure there is always a good meal on the table. Grandparents make sure that there are always chocolate chip cookies!
Sometimes Dad and Mom feel like the demands will never end. Grandparents know that it all comes to an end too quickly!
God bless all you Moms and Dads as you share with us the gifts of our grandchildren. With God’s grace we hope to give them back to you wrapped in the love of a grandparent!
