Friday … The end of a work week, and Grand Kids....

 

Picture if the day.

Josh & Stephen (twins) and Sherece (Only granddaughter)

Now for today’s Stuff:

I remember hearing when you retire you have 6 Saturdays and one Sunday each week. I just read where the Richest man in the world said, “The person who coined the phrase ‘Money cannot buy happiness’, knew what they were talking about."

We have witty folks here on Bloggersville, I liked what Victor said, “Don’t worry about tomorrow, Australia has already had it.”

I remember my daddy ‘way out there’ over our sons. He even held Jack Jr. many times in church until his time to Preach. ….. HOWEVER, when our GRAND KIDS

 came along I UNDERSTOOD how he felt. There is something special about your children’s children.


            Benjamin Aaron (our first)

One Grandpa said, “It is because you can have fun, and enjoy them, then HAND THEM BACK to their mom and dad.”

One of the grand kids gave me a saying on block: “Granddaddy’s are DADDIES without rules!”


              Matthew Dillon and Luke Vegas (Luke the youngest)

And of course as I have said here, I have the BEST Grand kids in the World.

WE are truly fortunate, both our sons have had great work ethics. We are proud of the Grands also; they all have solid work ethics.

Cute Corey, the red headed dude (our truck driver). Ben's brother. He passed away at 44 years of age.  Our only family loss but remembered always.

Enough bragging for today. Thanks for coming, and yes,

I know YOU TOO have the best grand kids too.

 HOWEVER.....!

It is good and heart-warming to look back on one's family and thank God for all of them.

God bless my friend. Thanx for the mention.

Well, we ALL have the bestest grandkids....of course we do. I am so blessed to be a part of my grandkids' lives...that they include me in their plans and call me when they can. How sorrowful to lose someone at that young of an age (40s).
What a blessing to have them all in our lives! Hugs to you and Sherry-xo Diana
