Mother's Day for a Grandma

You know you were a great mother, when you become a Nana and look at how your kids turned out as parents. Watching my kids, Jodi & Cody, I can probably say that I was the greatest mother of all times. I am so proud of the way they watch over, protect, guide, teach and love their own kids. It started with their marriages. Jodi picked Mike who is quite possibly the best husband, provider, daddy, person and most of all Christian that Jodi could have picked. God truly had a hand in their marriage and children. I have not disagreed with one single thing they have done! How many people can say that! Cody picked Nicole who is perfect for Cody, she is a go getter and the best mother I have ever seen. Little Max is a sure sign of that! I often wonder IF he is such a great baby or have they just met all his needs and he doesn't know the difference. Either way - it worked. I could not have picked a girl more perfect for Cody & his family. I am thankful for both Mike and Nicole. I know that my kids know how much I love them, because it shows in their love for their kids. Jackson, Molly & Max - I am a truly blessed Nana. There is just one more thing - when you kids have grand kids you will know that your love is different from the love you have for your kids, it's a love without all the hangups - you don't have to worry about how they are going to turn out - you only have to love them. I want to thank God for all the love I have received from Him, Bobby, my kids and grand kids. I am truly blessed. And......I know I was a great mother!!!!! I hope Jodi and Nicole had a blessed Mothers Day as I did. I love you all. Nana
