John, you are so wonderfully kind and I appreciate you so very much. Thank you for the kind review and amazing words for the picture I did and for the poem. The art was a little challenge but lots of fun. Now I use it for my wallpaper on my iPads. Thanks for the awesome six stars too. Thanks again, my very dear friend.
Love, Debi

Comment from royowen
I'm ashamed to admit it, but before I has my own kids, I was fairly indifferent to kids, but having my children sparked a love for them all, they are our future, precious cargo, our nation's future depends on how they are are raised, I feel fo them in today's modern woke thinking. Beautifully written dear Debi, blessings Roy

Hi Roy, and I love your honesty about kids. I think that is more of a man thing. You know? But us women were made to love children. However I started early on as they told me at a young age that they had to take out all but one half an ovary and the doctors said it would be a very slim chance for me to conceive. But God let them know that He was still in control and gave me three.
So, thanks so much for all your kindness regarding my children's poem.
My passion has always been about children so I thank you for all your considerate words. I appreciate it very much.
Thanks again, my dear friend. Love, Debi

Comment from Michael Ludwinder
Your poem is so full of love! I really felt the deep joy you have for your children, grandchildren, and all the kids you've taught. This flows so naturally. And the message is truly touching. I especially love the last stanza - it's such a beautiful reminder that love never fades! This was a
lovely read!

Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
That is such a cool idea to reenact a photo to show the growth of kids. You have been blessed with quite a troop! It is so great that you can spend family vacations with them. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Playing with them and doing "physical" things is just what way to love, there are so many more, and I'm sure you've got a handle on that, Grandma:-)
You post then and now pictures every year, don't you? I seem to remember this.
I like what you've done with the picture compilation, and I love the poem.
Enjoy those grands!
xoxo

Oh Yes, Pam, there are so many ways to connect with the kids when they come around for a visit. My youngest came to spend a day with me last week, as he is thirteen and he doesn't play games, so we visited and he helped me.
Another comes a few times a week because grandma pays him more to help her than he could ever find at another job. It is a win win for me, because I get time with him and he doesn't realize that he is just borrowing from the inheritance they will get anyway. But $25. Cash per hour sounds like a lot, but not for this kid, cause she only had 2 boys and she is maybe the best house keeper in the world and she sure taught them well.
Thanks so much, Sis. You are truly one of the best reviewers too.
Love, Debi

I pay my housekeeper $30 an hour, but she is so worth it. You're a good grandma.
Comment from nomi338
I want you to think about a drop of rain that helps a plant to grow into a tree. That tree gives birth to other trees that grow alongside it. Over time that initial tree becomes part of a forest and that forest gives life support to animals, birds, fish and eventually people. All from that initial drop of rain. You are that drop of rain that started something wonderful that is growing and growing and will never stop. Smile.

Comment from Begin Again
Oh, so beautiful - the photo and the words. They say love is a many splendor thing and anyone who has held a innocent child in their arms knows it is true. It grows with leaps and bounds with each laugh, each smile, each word. You did a great job, Debi,
Smiles and hugs, Carol

Comment from Cecilia A Heiskary
Debi,
What a great poem. Kids are great, especially grands cuz you can send them home at the end of the day. I don't have any grands and I'm okay with that.
I love how you did the two different pictures as they have grown up. You are very talented my friend.
Have a great day and the rest of your weekend.
Cecilia xoxo
