I was able to have all four of the Northern California grandkids this past week. What a blessing these little people are to me. I delight in their personalities, what they find funny, how innocent they are, and how they delight in the simple things of life. I was finally able to get a picture of the 4 together. What a fiascal that was! You try to get 4 kids, 8 and under to look at the camera, let alone maybe smile. I did get a couple that are good, and I will of course treasure them all as I remember the fun of trying to get it accomplished. We made cupcakes together. They all like to help me bake, so I gave each a job of their own, and as a team we made wonderful mini cupcakes together. As they baked, the kids made foam butterflies with a kit I bought. They each made one for my "In The Garden With Jesus" art room. I treasure each little gift from their sweet, great big hearts. Sam enjoyed the time playing with Kaylee (he's closest to her since we babysat her for 2 1/2 years) when he was 5. He sees Jordan often, so they play all the time. Sam is enjoying teaching Jordan about all the things Sam loves. Ethan and Jordan enjoyed playing together, as they don't see each other as often as they would like. My heart swells to overflowing with love for these little beings that God has blessed me with. Thank you Lord, for the gift of children. The gift of their laughter, unconditional love, and bright eyes. I have no trouble seeing why You delight in them so.
