Oh yes, indeed that is when we can feel close to our God. I do not have children so have missed out on watching one's own child grow with newly acquired knowledge, but I surely know God through observing our marvellously interesting world.

This is an excellent poem of happiness and gratefulness to the Lord. I was thrilled to be in agreement with you about seeing our children's accomplishments and seeing the Lord. Well done and good luck.

Thank you, Roy. I've heard it said that grandchildren are our reward for not having killed our own children when they were teenagers.
I really liked this review.
