My grandchildren are on school break this week and the weather has been amazing, so I wanted to take them out and about. Today we went to one of the nearby National parks. First we went into the visitor’s center and enjoyed the interactive displays that showed the history of the area and the wildlife that live there. Then we went on our adventure. We came to a place that had many large rocks, so we parked the car and explored. My grandson does indoor rock climbing in his school, so he felt pretty comfortable going up and down the boulders. My granddaughter, however, was much more cautious. I held her hand until she became more confident. When she was ready to challenge herself more, her brother coached her where to step and put her hands. I was so proud of them both. We had fun climbing all over the rocks for quite some time. Then we went to the gift shop and got ice cream. Both my grandchildren said they had such a fun time. I was happy they came and tried new things and really enjoyed it.

I Found God today the joy of my grandchildren.
