Many negative things come from being a child of divorce. However, as an adult I am seeing an upside to it: lots of Grandparents! Both for myself and my children. We are so blessed to have so many people that love us. This past week I had the pleasure of visiting some of my Grandparents. We loaded up the car and drove 12+ hours to New Mexico. The car ride went surprisingly well.
My Grandparents had been evacuated from their home due to wildfires raging in the mountains around their home. By the grace of God their home was spared. It was great to see them and give them a chance to see the kids. We were able to see my Dad and Step-mom, my Aunt and Uncle, and my Grandparents.

It was a flying trip however because my other Grandmother had a heart attack while we were away. So, we loaded up the car and headed back home. Once again by the grace of God her life was spared. She is doing remarkably well. I just had to get back to see her.

I am so blessed to have such great relationships with my grandparents. I am also thankful that my kids get the opportunity to have lots of grandparents in their lives. It was a crazy week, but it was so great to see everyone and praise God for the miracles in their lives.
