Grandchildren have energy. On this new journey that Jeana and I are on as grandparents, we are discovering that grandchildren have energy. Last night due to some matters, Jeana and I had Peyton and Parker all night.

When I walked into the house about 6:15 last night from work, I could tell the energy was alive and well. Peyton was in fine form again, full of energy. Parker’s energy is increasing as he is able now to turn over, resounding various sounds from his mouth.

These two energetic guys decided to display their energy at 2:30 a.m. this morning. I helped for a while, then returned to bed, and of course, got up shortly after that. When I went back to bed, Parker was smiling and Peyton was laughing. Again, energy.

How I love their energy and all we need is Reese here, who is now able to crawl, and we would have a whopping energetic time! We will get to see Reese in a couple of weeks and we are looking forward to seeing her.

Back to energy from grandchildren, now I realize that the cliche is reality, I mean really, really reality: NOW I KNOW WHY GOD GIVES CHILDREN TO US WHILE WE ARE YOUNG! I am convinced that the hardest working people in the world are the Moms of Preschoolers! Blessings to all of you!

Grandchildren are not only a bundle of energy, but some of the greatest joy life will ever afford you. Thanks Lord for these gifts of energy!
