Tales From Two Texas Paw Paw

Hi folks, this is 2 Texas PawPaw and the reason for this blog is I like to tell stories and try to write a little poetry now and then. Most of my writings is about my family because I have the greatest family in the world, I realize if you dont know my family, it might be a little boring to you but maybe my family will get a kick out of some of it anyway, Hope you like it and if you dont, well, thats ok too, you're still my friend.

"GROWING UP"

Hi folks, this is Two Texas PawPaw. Something caught my attention this past weekend, more than ever before. My two great grandkids, Josh & Kayleigh, are growing up. I noticed it when I started paying attention to the sentences thay were making, putting words together that made sense. Especially Josh, he is getting to be quiet intelligent. We all reach a point in their lives where we have to watch what we say, because they pick it up real fast. I don't know if that is good or bad, because it means they are growing up, but we are getting older. I once heard my daughter say, one wish she had was to live long enough to see her grandkids graduate from high school. How nice it would be for Nanny and I to see our great grandkids do the same. Anyway, here is a little short poem I threw together for the grandkids: It goes like this.....THERE'S NOTHING LIKE A GREAT GRANDCHILD, TO FILL YOUR LIVES WITH LOVE---TO SPOIL A LITTLE, ENJOY A LOT, AND THINK THE WHOLE WORLD OF---THERE'S NOTHING LIKE A GREAT GRANDCHILD, SO CUTE AND DEAR AND SWEET---TO FILL YOUR HEARTS WITH HAPPINESS AND MAKE YOUR JOY COMPLETE---THERE'S NOTHING LIKE A GREAT GRANDCHILD, TO SHARE THE LAUGHTER AND TEARS---THAT'S PART OF GROWING UP, THROUGH ALL THOSE PRECIOUS YEARS---ONE OF THE GREATEST MOMENTS IS TO SEE THEIR BEAUTIFUL SMILE---AND TELL SOMEONE WITH A PROUD LOOK, 'THAT'S MY GREAT GRANDCHILD'---AND AS OUR TIME GROWS CLOSER, AND OUR JOURNEY TO HEAVEN NEARS---THERE'S NOTHING LIKE A GREAT GRANDCHILD, TO FILL OUR GOLDEN YEARS:.....This is Two Texas PawPaw, signing off, and, the good Lord willing and the creeks don't rise, I'll be back tomorrow.
