I've grown up in Phoenix and have LOVED it!! I have 3 beautiful sisters and 8 wonderful nieces and nephews!! They light up my life!! I have wonderful parents who still continue to help me grow every day. I really could not ask for better parents. Right now I take care of my wonderful grandmother who has dementia. We have so much fun together. And I'm grateful that I can spend this time with her!

A little Blessing from God!!


I took Grandma shopping today at Target. And as we were checking out this little boy and his younger sister stopped my grandma. The little boy said to Grandma that his sister wants to tell her that she loves her. The little girl was standing there looking up at her... and she said to Grandma "I love you." Her mom was standing right there... and I said to her that that was the cutest thing. Her Mother began to tell me that her daughter saw Grandma and she would not go anywhere until she talked to Grandma. She told her mom that she thought Grandma was beautiful and she NEEDED to tell her. Can I just say that kids are a blessing!! Grandma was so touched that this little girl loved her... she had a smile on her face for hours.
So I have this note to ALL parents... if your child ever feels the need to tell someone they don't know that they love them or that they are beautiful or just any compliment... let them. You may not know who's prayers are being answered. I don't know this mom that let her daughter follow her heart, but I am truly grateful to see my grandma so happy! I thank my Heavenly Father for answering my prayers to make sure my grandma knows that she is loved!!

What a great experience. I bet grandma loved that. She radiates that love, and I agree, I'm glad that her mom let her tell grandma that special message.

I hate it when I made a mistake and I can't fix it, so, I'll just write that it's supposed to say "no wonder" not "so wonder" in my previous comment. Crazy me!!
