Love your encouraging blessings on your granddaughters. I hope they always feel your love and grow and blossom into the women of God that He has planned them to be. Thanks for sharing that poster, too!

I wish I can make this my life motto:"* always stay true to who you are." The little one is so blessed with such a wise and loving grandmother. Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writing.

This is a such a positive reinforcement and reminder that grandmas love their grandchildren before they arrive and then even more after. I bet the girls will adore this when they read it years from now.

Sweet letter of the growing up Charlotte and Eleanor. I love both their names, by the way. So sweet and elegant. A wonderful addition to your book. How old are they now? I would have loved this much earlier than twenty. I was married at twenty. Sending you my best today as always and blessings for the day.

    Charolette is five, as of June. Eleanor will be three later this month. Thank you for the kind support.

I agree. It's not safe these days to post too much information on social media. Putting names on shirts is another thing that should stop.

I can only imagine their reactions when the girls read these letters. Something they will cherish forever.

Barbara,
I'm torn and not sure if I'm right or wrong.

I thoroughly loved this letter. To me it's probably top one or two of the six. the first four paragraphs read fine to both girls. The fifth one seemed to be directed toward one.

From the beginning you were [(an)delete] intelligent, independent (girl). I'm curious to see how you continue to develop into the strong, independent young (woman) women, I'm positive you are meant to become.

Like I said I'm torn on this last paragraph.

John

    Thank you for the kind support. I figured they would read them separately. I've struggled with that concept myself. I have made corrections. I appreciate the help.

ia?? is a htlm error that is easy to correct.

Since this is addressed to both granddaughters shouldn't "independent girl," and "young woman" be independent girls and strong women?

Sure, in time, they will appreciate this letter.

    I've played around with that area and have made some corrections. Maybe not enough yet. Thank you for the support.

    Thank you for the kind support. Andrew, my son grew up with Jesus guiding his way. Katie, his wife, is in the learning process. I don't want to push too hard and scare her away. She's taking baby steps.

    Thank you for the kind support. I have seven, but I had four boys. My youngest isn't married or has children, yet. Although he's 30. He needs to find a wife. LOL
reply by Teri7 on 06-Jul-2023
    We have three sons and one grandson. But we have some girl cats! lol The youngest one that is 30 is very smart not to rush into marriage. Tom and I got married when I was 30. I had our twins when I was 32. Hard to believe. They are 35 now and our oldest is 45. I enjoy reading what you say to your girls. That is a very sweet thing to do my friend! love and blessings, Teri

    Our oldest will be 45 this month, on the 17th.

Your love for your granddaughters shines bright,
Barbara. I enjoyed reading this letter. You did a
great job highlighting the many aspects of the
girls' personalities which you loved. I agree with
their parents about not posting pictures on social
media. I enjoyed following along with you from before
they were born to all the milestones they've accomplished.
Thanks for sharing, Jan
