The Simplest Toy

Grandpa read me a story.
Grandma can we bake cookies?
Daddy let's go swimming!
Mommy help me paint my picture.

From the moment of their birth they  make known their dependence on us and
as they grow we can only pray that they will stand with us when we become dependent on them.

What our (grand)children will remember as adults is not the expensive toys you bought them for Christmas it will be the time you spent with them.
How you played with them.
How you formed a family with them.

And it will be their memories of us as we played, laughed and gave of our time that will inform their decisions to visit us when we need them.
