Life Changing Moment Ever since I can remember I spent almost ever y day at my Grandparents house. They live right down the road from my family and me‚ and that is how they got the title “Grandma and Grandpa down the road”. They lived in a small house three bedrooms‚ one bathroom‚ and a small living room with a fire place that can worm the coldest heart.

Blessings aren’t something that comes around too often. They don’t come with a huge wave of light from the sky or even thunderbolts to the head. They start as an insignificant moment that would normally be ignored by the everyday average person. I pondered unfortunate circumstances and appreciate kindness large or small.
