We are blessed to have grandchildren a mere 3 and 5 hours away (opposite directions form Chicago, of course!) and try to see them every 6 weeks or more often. Even if all we do is hang around the house and help with the carpooling, we are blessed to be with them in their own casual cay to day lives.I often use the time schlepping them to activities to tell Bible stories - the exciting ones! And I am not opposed to a little ham when it helps - did you know that when the Big Fish let Jonah out on the beach he BURPED loudly? What 5 year old boy could resist!
Now that the oldest girls are aging out of the visits to Grandad's we have such wonderful memories. No car hours seem too long in retrospect!
