Gracious God, thank you for the cherished gifts of grandparents and grandchildren, together blessed – loving with love overflowing, side by side or in reminiscence. Thank You for everyday moments: old-fashioned mints in the candy jar, a stuffed toy hugged after its mend, muddy sneakers at the frog pond, favorite stories read before bed. With thanks, I bring to You this prayer for all grandparents and grandchildren, their hearts reflecting Your delight, glad to share the ways they see things, assured of preciousness in Your sight. Amen.
