Grandma's
Birthday
by
Barbara Philbrook
Grandma we're
here to celebrate your hundredth Birthday today,
and I have a few things I'd like to say.
You see when it
comes to Grandmas I've really been Blessed,
God lovingly gave me the very best!
Thank You for
your kindness and your exemplary way,
Thank You for being there for us day by day.
I cherish your
joy and your loving smile,
and that whenever you were needed there was no denial.
I am thankful
for the inspiration you've been to me,
and that when there was a need you reprimanded so
tenderly.
I thank you for
the examples of how to live life,
and for the standard of coping with trials and strife.
I Thank You for
the love given unconditionally,
even when not doing what was expected of me.
I am grateful
you taught me to appreciate God's green Earth,
and instilled in me a true sense of self worth.
Thank You for
teaching me all about stability,
and for showing me that I too must walk in humility.
Thank You for
the memories I have inside,
Thank You for being a Grandma in whom I have such
pride.
