Grandchildren

I started knitting this for my second grandchild when my third daughter was pregnant. When our granddaughter arrived her mother didn’t really want this set so I have finished it and put it away for another grandchild and knitted something else for our grand baby girl.

We are blessed with five children - Theresa, Jennifer, Sarah, Daniel and Katrina. Two have already married and so grandchildren are bound to be numerous even if not all have children. However I hold on to the words from the bible

Proverbs 17:6
Children's children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children.

Psalm 128 A song of ascents.

1 Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in his ways.
2 You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours.
3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your sons will be like olive shoots around your table.  
4 Thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD.
5 May the LORD bless you from Zion all the days of your life; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem,
and may you live to see your children's children.
Peace be upon Israel.

These are our first grandchildren, Ryan and Evelyn, who we love dearly.

All scripture is from (New International Version)
