Thanksgiving with Grandma?

 

 

 

Well my dear ones,

 

 

I hope the New Year is going well for all.

 

I’ve been reflecting back on last year,

like was there anything really good

and memorable that happened?

Anything sweet and uplifting?

 

I did a little searching and found

a cool story about a Grandma

who was asked to send a text to her grandsons

to let them know what time dinner would be

on Thanksgiving, and to get RSVPs from them.

 

But one of her grandsons had gotten a new number

which he had neglected to give her.

So when the young man (who now had that number)

texted back asking who this is,

she said, “Your grandma.”

 

So he asked for a pic of her.

 

He sent one back, saying she wasn’t his grandma

but asking if he could still get a plate.

 

Her response?

“Of course you can.

That’s what grandmas do...feed everyone.”

 

People get wrong numbers,

or send accidental texts all the time;

but this Grandma followed through

and extended a heart-felt welcome

to a stranger...because that’s what grandmas,

or at least the cool grandmas, do. =)

I love this story!

The major media tends to focus so much

on the negative side of things.

It’s so refreshing to see a story

about regular people just being cool

and acting in a loving manner.

 

I pray 2017 is full of this kind of thing.

 

 

grace, peace, and love to you,
