time well spent by Mary Ellen Smithtime spent with a child
is time well spent.
a little hand to hold,
a game to play.
sitting close
laughing
talking
snoozing a bit perhaps.
(kids and grandma's need a nap)
and then there were those words
that made my heart leap.
"Did you always know you wanted to be a Grandma?" 01/11/2006 Author's Note: a precious day spent with my Grand Kate.

for a grandma. Spoil them then send them home
to their mother and father.....Charlie |
