My joy today was when I picked up my grandson at school. He came running down the hall and gave me the biggest hug and kiss. Then when we got home we sat down together with a pint of Ben & Jerry's ice cream and two spoons. Eli is my joy everyday and whenever I'm feeling down he seems to sense it and just pours on the love. Grandchildren have to be God's greatest gift.
