On Grandparents Day at Christians preschool, He with his class recited the song, "We're going on a bear hunt", so the next time they came to Grandma's house we gathered our flashlights, bundled up, because it was very cold and went for a walk outside. We were going to find a BEAR!! That is the biggest joy for me as a Grandma.............I just take the time to do silly things. I think it is because I have realized how fast life really goes. We walked around the farm....... Christian and Olivia shinning their flashlights in the trees, trying to sneak up on a little bear. The stars were out and we talked about stars, it was very dark and we talked to God, we heard strange noises and we talked about all the little creatures that God made. What amazed me the most was that Christian and Olivia had no fear...........none. They trusted me completely. We eventually we found the little stuffed black bear that I had hidden in the branches of an evergreen tree......what a delight. Take time for a walk in the dark.......Child like trust.....I think God wants that from each of us. Who's in the middle of the dark? God is .....Trust Him.
P.S. Grandpa was in charge of Danika while we went on our adventure.........................Kinda makes me fall in love all over again when I see this man love the grandkids as much as he does!!
P.P.S The dog ......her name is "Trinket", she is Chad and Jenna's dog. Yes ....I babysit her and Yes....... she has on a pink and brown sweater. I have learned to never say never!!
The Bear Hunt was a Success!! (I think the boys in this family would have to know if you had a tag for it, and what you did with the meat!) Enjoying being a nana right there with ya, and yes, grandpas and babies are about as appealing as puppies..(not necessarily in pink and brown sweaters!)
