If you are ever feeling down, think of a happy baby. They don’t have any cares in the world, except if they can see mommy! I am blessed to see my grandson, often lately. No matter what is going on, I look at him and I am instantly happy. His happiness is infectious. His smile, laughter, giggles, babbles, walk, wobble, shouts, everything about him is precious. I love just watching him. So much is going on in that little brain of his. I love to be in his presence.
I’ve been reading books to him, and just recently started doing puzzles with him, teaching him to fit the piece in the right spot, and then saying “yay!” when he gets it! His little face just lights up! Those chubby cheeks, the smile, the laugh! So precious.
I am a bit selfish when I tell you my favorite part is that first glimpse when he sees me… I have a huge smile on my face and he looks at me and smiles, and comes running toward me with his arms out! I just melt. These are the best time in life. I love him so much! Love, love, love. The best things in life ARE free.
Here’s to you Eli, Grandmom Joyce loves you with all her heart, and thank you Shayna and Shayne for allowing him in our lives! We love you guys.
