Tuesday's Grand Connection Thought
Not too long ago, our small-group from church started talking about special names. A good friend of ours, Jim, said that the name BaBa is very special to him. He explains: “It carries with it the honor of being the only BaBa to a little girl that loves, trusts, and respects me. She thinks I can do anything!”
His wife, LaRue, said: “One name that is special to me is MeMe. It’s special because a very special little girl calls me by that name—my granddaughter! And before that her mother called my mother by that name. So it has become a link from the present to the past and to the future. My hope is that it remains as special to me and my granddaughter as it did to my daughter and her grandmother, MeMe.”
Aren’t the many names of grandparents wonderful!
I’m Nana and love that name. Why? Because my grandmother was Nana and I have many, many fond memories of her. I wish I could talk with her now.
What does your grand call you? Does it have a special meaning?
He is able,
Mary
