Gift from a grand-daughter

[DaveA]

We received this family listing from one of our married grand-daughters back in 2017. Each of the small white plaques has the name and birth date of each of our off-spring (we are also included as are SIL's and DIL's). The blue ribbon was for expected great-grandson, and another, little Melanie was born last November. When my wife received it brought her to tears and I think it is one of the most loving gifts that we've ever received.

Fortunately, with the exception of a grandson and his wife (who reside on the west coast) all are within a 100 mile radius of our home and we see them regularly and their families interact with each other. Truly a blessing for us as we near the end of the trail.

What a lovely and thoughtful gift.

I love it!!

I’m also a little slow today, it took me a few minutes to realize what the letters were under the word “Blessings”. Maybe because I was focusing on the word Jason until I realized they were the months of the year...duh!

I need coffee...

Thank you all for your kind comments. We do realize that it's a blessing, especially as we've aged and we never just take it for granted.

This is so cool! I have a plaque that my son in law made me for Mother's Day last year, listing all my grandkids and their ages. But I've only 10 compared to your 35!! What a lovely gift!!
