Thank You, Jesus—
for letting me be a grandparent…
Thank You, Jesus,
for the gift I never knew
would soften me like this.
For small hands
that fit into mine
as if they were always meant to.
For laughter that sounds familiar,
yet brand new.
Thank You
for letting me see my children
through the eyes of their children.
For folding generations together
in ways only You can.
Thank You, Jesus,
for the second chance at wonder.
For bedtime stories told slower.
For knees that bend a little harder
but hearts that love deeper.
Thank You
for the moments that feel holy
without saying a word—
rocking chairs,
sticky fingers,
quiet prayers whispered
over sleeping heads.
Thank You for the reminders—
that time is precious,
that love multiplies,
that legacy isn’t built in years
but in presence.
Thank You, Jesus,
for trusting me with them.
For placing these little souls
into my story
and letting me love them
with wisdom earned
and grace learned.
I don’t take this lightly.
I don’t take this for granted.
So tonight,
and every day after,
I lift my grateful heart to You
and simply say—
Thank You, Jesus,
for letting me be
their grandparent.a
