What You're Striving For, Even If You Don't Know It

The thing I love the most about the way Keith Richards is doing his kids' book publicity is that in every interview I've read or watched (and that's a few, trust me), he emphasizes the fact that not only are grandparents important in children's lives but that grandchildren are important in grandparents' lives. That it's a most important bond.
i.e. It's not just that we, us old grandfolks, are going to affect the lives of these children, but that they affect our lives as well.

I love how, when his publisher said to him, "You know, these stories in your book about your grandfather need to be explored more, so why don't you write a kid's book?" his daughter came to him with "that look which women have when they're going to have a baby" and told him that yes, he was going to be a granddad for the fifth time and he thought, "Oh well. Maybe it's time."

It's Friday night. You know what that means.


And Mr. Moon and I are both wearing beaded bracelets made by Owen tonight. They were doing "B" this week in school and Beaded Bracelets was a double-B and Lily came up with that idea and we are wearing this jewelry so proudly.


It's a dream I never had come true. All of it. 

And I love that grandfather so much and now I'm going to go make him some cornbread. 

Love...Ms. Moon

  7. I think that you are probably the best grandparent. I sure do miss my grandparents. They were so good to me.
