If I were granted any wish,I'll tell you what I'd do,...I'd wish my kids were small again,for just a month or two.
To hear their squeals of laughter,to watch them while they play.And when they ask me to join in,I'd NOT say "Not today."
To hug again their chubby frame,to kiss away their tears,and cherish childhood innocencesthat's washed away the years.
Then when it's story time again,I'd stay a little longer,to answer questions, sing the songs,so memories would be stronger.
But time is callous, wishes, myth,yet God in all his wisdom,has given me another chancebefore I join his kingdom.
The face may not be just the same,the name is changed, 'tis true,but yet the smile that radiates,reminds me so of you.
God must have known that Grandmawould need a chance or two.For many little happy thingsshe hadn't time to do.So God gave love to Grandmasto equal that before,that, in effect embracesthose little lives she bore.

~~ Grandma's Prayer~~

Grandma's Prayer
Grandkids are Gods special gift to let every grandma know

That the Lord has set aside a special prayer,for when you’re feeling low.

I’m not sure if I have all the words but they came straight from Gods heart

To let each Grandma always know they’re loved right from the start.

Dear Grandma when I awoke today and saw that great big sun

I knew you put it in the sky So we could go out and have some fun.
And when I heard the robins sing and listened to their happy tune

I remembered how you sing me to sleep I hope you show up soon.
And when I saw that yellow butterfly land upon my window sill

The beauty I saw in front of me reminded me of Grandma,

I know it always will.
I got up then and knelt and prayed to our Lord Jesus in the sky

I thanked Him for all these beautiful things

But I had one more prayer before I said goodbye.
Dear God, when you see Grandma

Send an angel to keep her safe from harm

Then send her here to play with me

I feel safe inside her arms.
Amen

A Kitty's Prayer

A Kitty's Prayer
Now I lay me down to sleep,The king-size bed is soft and deep...I sleep right in the center grooveMy human can not hardly move!I've trapped her legs, she's tucked in tightAnd here is where I pass the nightNo one disturbs me or dares intrudeTill morning comes and "I want food!"I sneak up slowly to beginmy nibbles on my human's chin.She wakes up quickly,my claws they are pricklyFor the morning's hereand it's time to playI always seem to get my way.Oh thank you Lord for this day.And thank you Lord for giving meThis human person that I see.The one who hugs me and holds me tight_And sacrifices her bed at night.

I Promised

It was the day after Christmas at a church in San Francisco. The pastor of the church was looking over the cradle when he noticed that the baby Jesus was missing from among the figures. Immediately he turned and went outside and saw a little boy with a red wagon, and in the wagon was the figure of the little infant, Jesus.
So he walked up to the boy and said, "Well, where did you get Him, my fine friend?"
The little boy replied, "I got him from the church."
"And why did you take him?"
The boy said, "Well, about a week before Christmas I prayed to the little Lord Jesus and I told him if he would bring me a red wagon for Christmas I would give him a ride around the block in it."
