Today I'm going to Show and Tell my grandmother. Yes, sounds strange, but she did the greatest thing... something worth showing and telling about. You see, on Monday of this week my father brought my 93 year old grandmother over to celebrate my daughters first birthday. This was special because since my broken ankle, I haven't been able to get out and see anyone!!! It was such a great visit! I'm so thankful we were able to snap this photo... four generations:

You can't really see it, but my grandmother gave my daughter this beautiful crystal angel with a personal letter attached. I should have waited to read the letter, but I just couldn't help it (even though I just knew I would cry like a baby when I read it). The letter is to my daughter. It shares about how the angel she gave my daughter is a symbol of the prayers in Heaven that circle the thrown of God... all for my daughter. The angel is also to serve as a reminder of how much my grandmother loves her - and to some day be displayed not only in her bedroom while growning up, but in her own house when she is grown up. Why? So my grandmother's memory won't be forgotten. Touching. My grandmother was so certian that she would not live to see my daughter be born, much less see my daughters first birthday... but she did. We're so thankful! I just had to share... sometimes people make the most valuable show and tell items!
Now it is my turn... I can't wait to go visit all of you and your Show and Tell for this Friday. If you want to join us just.... ~Make a Show and Tell Post and make sure it is wholesome. It can be pretty much what ever you want to share. It could be about you ...or your family ....or what is going on in your homeschooling.
Then, be sure to go visit Canadagirl and tell her that you joined S&T. She will then link you to her Friday Show and Tell and to the many other bloggers that are participating. It's so fun!
Enjoy your Friday!!!
