Tonight, I was going to move my wagon out back. My son said, Hang on dad, the kids will want to go." I grabbed three bales of hay and we all went for a short ride around the farm. My two and a half year old grandson held the butt lines most of the way. My heart was full. I hope I continue to find that extra time for moments like that...It's my job as a grandpa! And by golly, I love it.

Good for you taking a moment with the grandkids. We all need to take a moment with our kids or grandkids in what ever we do, I know I dont enough with my girls, i don't seem to have the time, but I do try.

G.D Rose....Just trying is often enough. At least you realize what a wonderful thing spending time with your family means to them and you! All of us could probably do a little better in that department. We can all make a little more money,,,,but we only get so much time.
