smitten

6/10/11

Today my three year old grandson climbed into my lap, laid his sweet smelling head on my shoulder and uttered these precious words to this smitten grandma…



”When I grow up, I’m going to carry you and take care of you.”    


Big sigh!  What is it about little boys that makes them so protective of their grandmas?  With  sweet, innocent love like that, how could you want for anything more?
