Grandma Glasses!!!!


A little change of thought, I recently read a little boy's description of his Grandma and wished I could measure up to his thoughts. I realize I have failed in many areas but I cherish the memories several of my grandchildren shared at my birthday party recently. Being a Grandma is a privilege and I am thankful I am blessed with some really special grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

This little boy said to his playmate, "When I get older, I want to wear glasses just like my Grandma wears. She must have a special kind because she can see much more than most people can. She can see when folks are hungry or tired or sorry and she can even see what will make them feel better. She can see how to fix a lot of things to have fun with and she can see what a feller meant to do even if he didn't do it right. She can see when a feller is about to cry and she can see what to do to make him feel better. I asked her one day how she could see so good and she said it was the way she learned to look at things as she got older. So when I get older, I want a pair of glasses just like Grandma's so I can see good too!!!"

We might all try looking at life from a positive stand point and try seeing the good first. Don't accept any thing bad until after you have tried all the good avenues.

Have a Good Day!!
