Heaven's Delight

When God made you my little Grandson, he told His Angels to gather around. This little baby I have made is heavens delight, which brought many smiles to their beautiful glowing faces. Then the Lord said, every once in a while, I make someone very special and this little guy you see before you, is one of the special ones. He shall bring happiness and so many smiles to everyone he meets. This child will have a mighty heart as big as can be and will touch many people lives. I now send him to the earth so his family can love and cherish this little guy, who will be a most tender and beautiful child. Written 6-7-11 For my precious Grandson Brandon James Birkenstock on his first birthday June 10, 2011

I felt this way about my grandson, first one, when he was born. He was such a mild baby. Very nice.

Oh how wonderful James. And I know he will grow up to be a wonderful adult, with all the love that he has received. I am sorry I have not been commenting. I have been gone from home and had so many comments when I came back I couldn't get to them and the contests keep coming and I like to keep up with them. Thank you for your always nice words. Love, Joyce
