I Love to Tell the Story

Today was Grandparents' Day at our school, and the theme of the program was storytelling. It was just a blessed day all around! Mema and Granddaddy were able to tour the kids' classrooms, meet their teachers, and see all their work. Then we were all blessed to watch the elementary students sing old hymns and tell their own stories about the impact their grandparents have had on their lives. My favorite part of the program was when the kindergarten students recited the ABC Bible verses, one verse for each of the 26 letters of the alphabet. These precious children truly are our legacy, and I am reminded of the importance of raising them in the "nurture and admonition of the Lord." Above all else, we want to teach them the truths of the Bible so that they can store them in their hearts and one day be able to tell the old old story of Jesus and His love.

    What a blessing it was for us to share this special time with our precious Grandchildren. Of course we missed our Mac. We are so looking forward to sharing this special day with Asher.
    Love,
    MeMa and Grandaddy
