My daughter and grandson have lived with us for the past 3 1/2 years. My little grandson is my buddy. We were playing last night and I had to go do some work and he said, "Okay, Nana. Maybe you can be a little kid when you grow up!"
I've always known in the back of my mind that they wouldn't live with us forever. I knew she would get on her feet and make her own life. Now it looks like that may be happening soon. Sometime in the coming months I think they will be moving away.
Part of my mother heart is very happy for her. She is excited about making her own way for her and for her son. But my grandmother heart is really going to miss that boy being here all the time.
Genesis 31:49 "And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from another."

Terri,
I feel for you. I know it's gonna be a hard change and how could anyone not miss a face like that.
Hoping they wont be too far away.
Praying for you, Terri!!
