Grandmas with Cameras by Sally Dube


A family friend of the Aldrich-Bardon crew has wordsmithed a great poem based upon a recent photo at our granddaughter's birthday. With her permission I've posted it here in my blog and dedicate it to all the proud grandmas out there. Enjoy!


Grandmas with Cameras
by Sally Dube


Something happens to most mothers

When they are old (but still quite young =)

Their children grow up, marry

And have a daughter or a son!


This baby is the sweetest

That on earth they’d ever seen

Now that Mother has a new name

She’s now “Grandma” her ultimate dream!


She rocks and sings that little one

Her heart filled with so much love

She never knew how blessed she’d be

By this bundle sent from above.


Her camera never leaves her hand

So not to miss that smile

For this baby IS the cutest EVER

So lots of pictures in a short while


Laughing, crying, sleeping, yawning

Making sure to get each look

Rolling, sitting, creeping and crawling

Why her grandchild should be in a book!


Grandmas with cameras are a special breed

Never missing a photo op

With a flash and a snap and a “say cheese”

Their pictures just don"t stop =)

Thank-you Sally for your precious gift of words!

Love,

Dawn (Grams) and Juanita (Mammie)
