"SWEET CHEEKS" My First Grandchild!

Dear Sweet Cheeks, today you are 7 weeks old. Someday you will know how fast time goes by. But right now you are enjoying the sweet peace of days passing and night-time visits with mom and dad. Have I told you how much I love you? I never knew how fast someone can fall in love, I guess it was love at first sight. I don't remember ever feeling this way so soon after giving birth to my own children. Maybe because I was young and anxious about that new experience. But somehow, with a grandchild, it seems different. My cousin Phyllis said it right, "you feel like you did with your first love, it hurts deep down in the pit of your stomach when you are apart and can't wait until you are together again". Sweet Cheeks, you are the first thing on my mind when I wake up and you are in my prayers before I go to sleep. I pray for you to have the hand of the Lord upon your life. To be safe and secure and know that you belong to a Heavenly Father who has blessed you with two Godly parents who will train you and guide you with His love. I also pray that grandpa and I will be around for a long time, to see you grow into a beautiful young lady full of love and desire to serve God and people. I love you Caroline Hope, my Sweet Cheeks Love Grandma
