Reflections of my Grandson.....


Life is a blessing and time is precious. I am thankful to God for waking me up this morning and for this moment of reflection. Sometimes we get so busy in life and keep so much on our mind that we rarely take the time to rest and reflect. As I sit here at my computer this early precious Sunday morning. I began thinking about a few things, one being the holidays and how precious they have always been to me. I dont ever remember not being excited about the approaching holidays. To me Holiday time is family time, love, food, fun, and pure enjoyment with the ones we love and cherish. It's a time of reflection and extra gratefulness unto to God for all that you have and that you are still here to enjoy time with your family. Yes my life has been FULL, praise God, I can't complain at all. There have been good times and bad times and even those times in between, lol, but all in all my life has been greeeeeaaaaaat! I have God's favor and I say this not to say those whose lives are not great aren't loved by God because God so loved the world that HE gave his only begotten SON, and not to forget how HE showed his love toward us that while we were yet sinners his SON {Jesus} whom I am referring to DIED so we could live. How thankful I am that when I look back the good times outweigh the bad tremendously. God, thaaaaaaaank you!

I have a grandson yall,lol, he is a handful, yes he is spoiled rotten, and I guess you can say we are partly the blame, lol. He will be two years old in three months. This little precious thing named Izaiah is my pride and joy. In between telling him to leave this alone and put that down, stop running, etc. we have our special moments that are unforgettable. My random hugs around my neck, my sweet kisses, my smiles, the eye to eye contact that we sometimes give one another, the moments when he crys because he doesnt like when his mom has to leave for work and I take him in my arms on my lap and try to comfort him and let him know its all good to hang out with grandmom until mommy returns. But what I am remembering right now is the times when he is on my lap and he plays with my cross on my chain and my Jesus key until his little head is tired and he lays it on my chest and falls asleep and I can do nothing but kiss that little big head of his because I am so grateful that he is with us and thankful each day to see him and his little life progress right before my eyes. Amongst the many things I am thankful to God for this morning I want to thank him for Izaiah.....I love him!
