A Grandfather’s Love

My grand­fa­ther cel­e­brated his 93rd birth­day last Fri­day. I love that. He’s lived 93 years. Looks like he’s in his 70’s and acts a lot younger! He works at a local golf course and still golfs 18 holes once a week.  He had to retake his dri­vers license test and when I called to see how it went he replied, “Well, it went fine, of course. I taught them how to drive just fine.” *snicker*

He holds a very spe­cial place in my heart because he taught me more than he knows. Most impor­tantly he showed me how a grandfather-granddaughter rela­tion­ship should be. He was my biggest fan and we can never laugh enough.

I find myself paus­ing quite often in my day and smil­ing over him. He is def­i­nitely a bless­ing in my life that I’m hon­ored to count daily.

{Thanks, Gpa for being the sup­port and love that I needed so many times in my life!!}
