The sweetest thing just happened!
School
had just gotten out and one of my students gets picked up by his
grandma. When I walked out with him to meet her he said to me, "will you
come meet my pop pop?" And his grandma said that he wants you to come
meet his grandpa. I said sure not thinking anything of it. As we were
walking over grandma asked if he had told me anything about his pop pop.
I said no and she said that he is dying of lugericks (not sure how to
spell it) I told her I was sorry and I would be happy to come and meet
him. He sat in the car... shook my hand, I asked if he was pop pop and
he nodded yes. I realized he wasn't able to
talk. I told him that it was nice to meet him. And he got all teary. So
of course I did to. Grandma said that he has been wanting to come pick
up his grandson and this is the first day that he has had the energy to
get out of the house. I started thinking about this little boy and his
mental state and that he might not understand when it comes time for his
grandpa not to be here any more. Then I started thinking about how much
I missed my grandpas. I told this grandpa that I had lost my two
grandpas to cancer, and that I know he will be greatly missed because I
miss mine! This sweet frail little grandpa sat up in the car and put his
arms around me. It was like my grandpas up in heaven were there hugging
me too. So sweet! So grateful for the plan of salvation and that I will
one day see them again!
