Last week, my husband and I finally met our newest grandchildren. While we love all the others just as much, holding the new ones was very special. My Friday Feature today is a celebration of our meeting. To commemorate that meeting, I wrote a poem describing my sentiments in holding the infants for the first time and of spending time with three of our other grandchildren.
Holding Joy
Holding joy
Embracing sweetness
Grandchild in my arms
The height of contentment
Chasing smiles
Frolicking with laughter
Grandchild running around
The ultimate in enjoyment
Finding love
Cherishing memories
Grandchild in my life
The epitome of endearment
