stays here

STAYS HERE
this is the motto my wife she plans to follow
when our new granddaughter arrives in two weeks

ive thought about grand babies for awhile now
knowing that i may be on borrowed time
but
since ive improved some
and
seem to be sailing along
stable
i feel better about the future

i want to be around for this one and maybe more in the
future
spoiling the heck out of them
letting them play in the dirt
heck let them eat some of it if they want
replace those bacteria with those that farm kids have
since it has been shown that farm kids are healthier
than city kids
getting more fresh air maybe
and
with less contamination in the air and ground out in the country

i want to see dirt under those little finger nails
since
when that happens you just know they are having
a great time

ok ill clean em up before mom sees them

now my rainwater brother told me the other day
when grand kids arrive in your life
life as you know it will never be the same

i sure hope thats true
i can handle that

i want them to have an appreciation of nature
gardening bugs butterflies birds
bees
my bees of course
heck ill suit them up in my bee suit if they want to

i just want them to leave this earth in a better shape
than our generation has

i want them to not care about a persons race
their religion their politics their sexual orientation
but to care about them as a person
and
how to make this world a better place

i dont worry about not seeing them grow up
since im more postitive about the future
heck ive got an excuse right

well i dont remember giving her my cookies to eat
as much as she wants
or
letting her go outside and play in the dirt and the
compost garden and dig in the garden
that dirtll wash off
if not it wont hurt none

so
yes i do look forward to grandfatherhood
worried i was going to miss out on all that
