Today is a very special day. Why? Because it is my grandson's birthday. He is one year old. He is so precious. Being a grandma is better than I ever imagined. God has blessed me abundantly with this little boy.
When I was young, I was told by a doctor that I would most likely not be able to have children. That news made me very sad. When my husband and I found out we were pregnant it was a joyous day. Of course my son's birth was even more joyous. Then three years later my daughter was born. The mother of my sweet grandson. God chose to bless me.
A year ago my daughter and her husband and my grandson were living in Wyoming. That was hard on this grandma. I have always wanted to have my children close and of course with grandchildren...I stressed over it. Should we move there, should we stay, they weren't moving because my son-in-law had a really good job in the oilfield.
Well, I went to see them about a month after my little biggie boy was born and it was so hard to leave. My heart goes out to all those grandma and grandpa's out there who do not live close to the grandchildren. It is torture. Anyway, after I got back home, I missed my daughter even more than before and of course the grandson.
I finally had to pray and have God help me accept that we lived so far apart and I would just have to save money for airplane tickets. So, I started making plans on a home business and cleaning out a room to put it in...when, I got the call. Mom, we are moving home. WooHoo! What joy.
Now, my kids are here, living in my house, and I get to see the little biggie boy every day. I am truly a blessed grandma.
Father,
I know there are many grandparents out there that don't see their grandchildren often for a variety of reasons and I lift them up to You. I pray that you will comfort their hearts, help them to get to see their grandchildren as often as possible. Thank You for bringing my grandson here and letting them live with me. Happy birthday Little Biggie Boy!
In Jesus Name,
Amen.
