A lot of aging brings the fact home that life is ending and not beginning. Retire. Health issues. Sell the house for a smaller place. A spouse dies.
Grandchildren bring that new energy to us. Everything is new to them. Doing old activities become a fun event again.
Grandchildren help change our perspective. We want to make pancakes. We want to go to the park.
We want to learn new activities on the Internet.
All of a sudden we do not want to be left behind.
Grandchildren help us to look at new beginnings. We can start over again in many areas.
There is a reason to take new pictures. Time to tell family stories. Time to write down those stories.
Grandchildren can be sweet too.
This Nana had a surprise conversation. We were talking about how old I was- 69. I felt I was getting older. They said no Nana. You are a young Nana. You walk. Take care of yourself. Well you only look 55!!
And you are not fat.
Grandchildren can make our day, don't you think!!
