Happy Birthday, Josiah!

Today is our grandson's 10th birthday. Happy Birthday, Josiah David. Grandpa and I are so very proud of you. We were lucky enough to live near you for the first 4 years of your life and got to know you very well.

Now we are enjoying watching you grow and playing piano. You have a sense of humor that will one day be read on paper for many to see. I just hope you don't outgrow those fantastic hugs you give so willingly. Have a great day, sweetheart. I love you!

To Josiah

I just have to share this. Yesterday afternoon, my almost 10-year-old grandson, Josiah, called and asked what I was doing. I told him the daily routine and then told him that at noon yesterday, I had gone to a fashion show at our clubhouse put on for the residents. He pondered quietly and then said, "A fashion show, huh? Did you get any tips?"

No Josiah, Grandma didn't get too many tips to help her situation. My fashion sense is what it is, but I am so glad that you are concerned. This is also the grandson who at age 5 told his mother, "I love the smell of a blue sky in the afternoon."

Keep dreaming Josiah, someday you will put all this on paper with a pen, I just know it! Love you, Grandma
