My photo
This is more of a photo scrapbook and a place to write (and vent) my thoughts and feelings and brag about my grandkids.. I am a 60 something wife, mom & grandma. I've been married to my best friend Walt since 1977. The most important thing in my life is family. We have been blessed with some great kids, our daughter Kayci, son Cody, our awesome grandson Jesse, our precious granddaughters Cassandra and Chelsea and our newest grandson John. We are currently raising our grandson Jesse and dealing with things such as Autism & ADHD. We have lived in northern Arizona for most of the last 35 years and love it here. We've had our ups & downs ~ but life is good... I'll add a little here - my sweetheart and best friend Walt passed away unexpectedly January 8, 2014. He will be missed by many.

Let Them Be Little

I love the words to this song by Billy Dean
Let Them Be Little
I love the whole song, but here is the chorus:
Let them be little
For they're only that way for a while
give them hope, give them praise,
give them love every day,
Let them cry,
Let them giggle,
Let them sleep in the middle,
But most of all,
Let them be little
Too many children are growing up too fast -
they need to run and play and laugh,
to be kids not mini adults
Sorry, I just had to vent!
(in the picture are Danny & I sooo many years ago!)

I don't think I've heard that song, but what sweet words! It's true, and I agree. I wish we could protect their innocence forever! :)
