Grandparents



Paw-Paw
Humble prayers of thanksgiving, the calming effect of listening to the front door wind chime or looking for birds, the wisdom of “measuring twice and cutting once”, the importance of family, personifying how giving truly is better than receiving, and being bold in one’s faith.   

Maw-Maw
Hospitality goes a long way, the prudence of “better safe than sorry”, how Christmas is every day {and not just because the tree is still up}, the joy of a favorite meal shared with family, clever craftiness, and balancing seriousness with silliness.      

You both opened the world to me: my first plane ride to Washington D.C., blackberry picking and planting a garden, attending countless shows at The Fox Theatre, helping me purchase my first car.

These words do not do justice for how much I love and appreciate you!
Happiest of Birthdays!
