I LOVE MY BOYS!!!















When I think of my Grandchildren I am filled with many emotions. Benjamin is the oldest and the one who won my heart first. Ever since he was a newborn he has had a special place in my heart. I sent a note to the boys this week to say "I love you." This is the email Benjamin sent to me yesterday. It really brightened my day when I saw it was from him. He is such a gift from God to this world, his heart is so full of compassion for others. I remember the first email he sent to Manny. We were in Madera for the weekend and he was a year old. I put him on my lap and he tapped on the keyboard. I translated the note for Manny, saying "Ben says goodnight." :) It made Manny laugh thinking of Ben typing a note on the computer. I miss those days at my parents house when we would gather the Johnson clan together. I hope the "cousins" will have a place to gather together and make memories the way Zack and his cousins did.

Here is Ben's email and mine in return, I will continue posting them as we correspond.:) This should be fun and interesting....
Who knows maybe I'll get one from Samuel....of course that may be a picture of Thomas the Train with a number one on it:).



Dear grandma Sue,


I miss you. Samuel misses you too. Have a GOOD time! I can`t wait until you see William. My dad misses you a lot. I love you.


Love,


Benjamin.


Dear Benjamin,
I have been thinking about you and Samuel every day. We are going to have so much fun at the beach in a couple of weeks. Maybe, we can go on a mystery trip, you never know what what we may find. Isn't there a Wild Animal Park close to your house? How would you like to find some wild animals? Think about it, maybe you and your parents can make a mystery map for us to follow and we will go on an adventure together. Let me know if this sounds like fun to you and Samuel.
I love you, from here to the moon and back!

Grandma Sue

P.S. Manny wants to go on a mystery trip too, we can take your parents and William if they want to go with us, it's going to be a lot of fun!

(This picture is Ben and Samuel playing with the planes Manny got for them at the hobby store.) And he thinks I spoil them....hmmm......
