Grandma Like A Swan?

--by babynurse, posted Jan 23, 2008

My granddaughter is studying totem poles in school, and she had to make one, using her family, for the animals on the pole.

The first one she said was her mother ... that she was a dog because she was so beautiful. The next one was for her baby sister, and she said a fox, because she was so sneaky. Another one would be her Papa, an eagle, because he was so brave, and fought in Vietnam to serve the country.

She was trying real hard to figure out one for her older brother. Eventually, she said she needed an animal that was annoying and decided on a rat!

Then she needed one for me. My grandson said, "Grandma is a swan." Boy, did that make my day! ME.... A SWAN!!!!!?????

Children see us in ways that we don't know and they have something in their hearts which makes us feel so right. I mean she said you are a swan and that means you are so beautiful and very light and you have a heart which not many have it. So think about every single word you hear from children. Keep It Up...!!!
