What a gift ...

We were blessed with a beautiful granddaughter
about a year and a half ago.
Although it is so difficult to have her so far away,
she just brings joy and sass to every day she touches.
She's an absolute treasure
and an incredible blessing to the family.
I had always heard about what a grandbaby can do
to your heart and your soul and your life.
It's all true ... and it's amazing.

But ...

What no one tells you,
is that the icing on top,
the almost more precious gift
than that wee, tiny human,
is the giddiness;
the complete love and awe;
the sheer elation
that it brings out in your own kids.
To see and hear and bear witness
to THAT kind of love ...

is an absolutely beautiful gift.
