Language of Enchantment - HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY RADONA

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY RADONA

Memories fade as years go by
Yet some remain so clear
Like peeking into folds of pink
To see a face appear

My introduction to the role
Of grandma was so grand!
Now these thirty some years later
I so totally understand
.

That one small hand wrapped around
My finger and my heart
Will be a forever favorite picture
On the wall of family art.

God had His Hand upon you
From the moment of conception.
As I examined all your parts,
I rejoiced in His perfection!

To say you were adorable
Would be putting it too mild.
But not only were you pretty
You were a bright, inquiring child.

And you liked eggs and bacon
Just like your grandpa did!
Forget the milk and cereal!
You were a bigger breakfast kid!!

I had an egg this morning…
It was just my special way
Of celebrating you, my child,
Have a Great, God-blessed Birthday!!!

Love Always,
Grandma

Proverbs 17:6
Grandchildren are the crown of old men,
And the glory of sons is their fathers

Psalm 145:4
One generation shall praise Thy works to another,
And shall declare Thy mighty acts.

Psalm 37:25
I have been young, and now I am old;
Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken,
Or his descendants begging bread.

GRANDMA AND RADONA
