Grandma my up come get me Hazen called out, again Grammy my up.
I watched Hazen while Ryan and Annie went on their cruise
to the Western Caribbean for their fifth ann. It was a lot of work but
what greater joy then my grandchildren. They are the light of my life.
It took me back a few years to my twenties I would say, only at
night I didn't feel twenty after chasing him all day long. It made me think
back to when my children were young and I wonder if I took
the time to enjoy them as I do my grandchildren. I think that answer is
NO! Boy I missed out on a lot. I tried to think back about the cute
things they use to say and couldn't remember a lot, so I wrote some of Hazen's
comments to myself and his grandpa through-out the week here we go!
Hazen asked grandpa what ya been doin'?,Grandpa said" I've been playing
with you all day , we've been to the park". Grandpa asks Hazen " what have you
been doin", Hazen comment back" I've been out in the corral" Grandpa asks," Where
is the corral", Hazen" out by the barn" Hazen then comments " I have been
sellin' horses all day it's hard work Poppa".
One morning I got up then went to lay back on Ry and Annie's bed Hazen comes
in and asks " hey grammy you been sleepin' with my daddy?, that's his bed".
But the most precious thing was as we was watching his most favorite
movie at 12:30 a.m. "Savage Sam", Hazen looked up at me and said " Grammy
I want my Mommy to come home ,I want My mommy". My eye's feeled
with tears as I remember the comfort of my mother at a young age. Only a mom
can feel the shoes of their own children , not even their Grandma can feel them.
I also remembered times my children most needed me when so little as they
had hard times understanding.It made me so thankful to be a mom and
to have had and to know my children still at times need their mom for differant
circumstances in their lives, rather it be to baby sit or to give advice or
even to comfort them in times of disappointment in their lives. I will always love
being their mom and loving that they have brought these precious little
one into my life to be their grammy. I love all five of these little
spirits and personalities they each have. They all say and do the cutest things,
and have my whole heart forever!
What a tiring week it was and I'm glad Annie and Ryan was able to go, but
also what a blessing it was for me to have the opportunity to go back in to time
and to remember my children and the fun they brought into my life
years ago and will continue to bring into my life to come. I love them all so
much and I am so thankful for them!
Hazen is so lucky to have such a fun grammy in his life. Thanks so much for watching him while we were gone! I know he loved every minute of it! And don't forget- I will always need you!
