We always thanked Him for Jesus and our lives.
Granddad was special too, usually quiet and stern.
I used him as a model when i wanted my sons to be a man.
Perhaps he was a bit too stern but he didn't have a dad.
Gram was mom and grandma to me, a blessing she was.

Now when I look up I think I feel her looking at me.
Now that I am a grandma I know how she felt.
How she took the wild flowers from my hand and put them in a vase.
How she whispered hush, so no one but us could hear.

Now i kiss a grand and say hush I love you and all will be better.
From the seven year old to the six week old.
A loving hug and sweet words whispered in love
Hush now Precious it is ok, I will take care of it.
