Today I got a picture of my 5 month old granddaughter from my son. I have only seen her in person when she was a newborn. I do get to see her via video chat and as she gets older she is more interested in what is going on. In the picture I received, she is being held by the refrigerator and reaching for a photo of me with her older brother. My son said that every time they go in the kitchen, she reaches for the picture. I choose to believe that she wants to get to know me. I told my son to make sure they say, “Grammy!” over and over so that when we get to see each other again in person she will know who I am. He said they make sure to do that. It made me happy that my son was so thoughtful to send the picture.

I Found God today in a hopeful connection with my granddaughter and the thoughtfulness of my son.
