I am the grandfather of five, four boys and a girl.

I think they are the best grandchildren in the world.

They all call me papa and it makes no never mind to me.

For of my four boys and one girl I am just as proud as can be.

I was proud to be a father and now I have stepped up a notch.

They grow up so fast and I find that all I can do is watch.

Just as with my kids, I heard them say their very first word.

I treasure every single thing they say and everything I heard.

I watch them rummage through their toys and watch them as they play.

They play with their toy horse, “I’m riding the horsy,” they would say.

They are a source of joy and a blessing sent from God above.

They are a source of happiness and never dying love.
