Good Monday Morning to one and all :)
Yesterday I was on the receiving end of some MAGIC.
My granddaughter (almost 6 years old) held her sparkling blue wand high (pictured) and said, ‘What do you want to be, Grandma?’
I said, ‘I want to be a princess Grandma.’
She closed her eyes, waved the wand around and suddenly stopped. Her eyes popped open and she had a huge smile on her face. Very seriously, she told me, ‘You can’t see it, but you are very beautiful.’ She leaned in really close. ‘Now remember, you can’t see it,’ she said as she took off, intent on something else.
But her words hit home! How often do we fail to see the beauty that is already inside us, that other people see?

Precious. Glad she can see what some of us have known for a very long time.
Kids say the most amazing things at just the right time. If only we could still have that view of life.
Grandchildren are an absolute delight! They say the most wonderful things at just the right time.
