Looking though the world though different eyes

You know for those of you who have never had the joy of raising a child, could never know how it feels to see someone you have work so hard to help though the hardships of life. Just so they may grow up and be men and women. The joy I feel having helped so many and the sadness of knowing they will no long need me for they are their own person now. It is a sad feeling and a happy one at the same time. I never understood how my grandmother felt till I had raised one of my own. But it was help me learn so much though life. And I thank God for the experience I could have never asked for anything better. I just only hope that I live long enough to see their children and then there children after that. I know all too well how hard life is, but there is great joys to be found in it as well.....
