Why,” I wondered, “had Grandma spent so many hours with me? Surely she much have had better thing to do. But she’d always been so selfless, so generous with her timer – as though being with me was genuinely important to her. Our times together had meant so much to me. I’d been so self-absorbed lately- so wrapped up in worry about my career. Perhaps-I felt a twinge of guilt at the idea; perhaps there was more to being a good father than simply being a good provider. Could it be that God was trying to tell me that my sons might need and befit from the same kind of love and attention that Grandma had given me?”
