Seven Things My Grandson Taught Me

grandsonGrandson Wisdom

Several years ago, I wrote about seven things my granddaughter taught me.

My hubby and I have just returned from a wonderful visit to get acquainted with our new grandson. Once again I found that a baby’s perspective on life has a lot to teach me. When I observed my granddaughter, she was five months old. Our grandson was only two weeks old, so his perspective is a bit different. Here are a few bits of newborn wisdom:

  1. People won’t always understand what you need, but your voice still matters
  2. Sometimes you just need to scrunch your face up and cry
  3. Music always makes things a little better
  4. No matter how distressing life is, there are always arms to hold you
  5. The world is full of amazing wonders everywhere you turn
  6. There is no such thing as too much snuggling
  7. You don’t have to be productive to be cherished

If your day feels particularly painful or difficult, I pray that you can know the truth that you are cherished by the One who made you, and that He will send arms to hold you, music to soothe you, and wonders to delight you.

Blessings!
