Out of the Mouths of Children

In a day when some despair of today's children, an event happens that makes you think today's kids just might turn out all right.

Yesterday (Feb. 8) my son-in-law's mother passed away after a long battle with cancer. This morning he awoke to find a note taped to the bedroom door that had been written by my 7-year-old granddaughter. The note said, "Dad, I know grandma was your mother. I want you to know this: She will always be in our hearts. Siena."

It is natural for a grandparent to be proud of their grandchildren and I don't think I could ever be prouder of my granddaughter than I am at this moment.
