Silence may be golden but it does not compare to the silver trumpet of grandchildren all talking at the same time.

Dylan did at the beach when he they were all here.” And the other will 
smile and nod remembering the incident. 

“Remember when all the grandchildren were on the trampoline?” 

We will and it will be hard to wipe the smile from our faces. Memories
are better remembered in silent moments when they can rightly be 
appreciated. 

Then my wife said, “Didn't Tyler and Taylor and Jordan and Olivia seem
to enjoy playing with their cousins from Ohio? I've never seen them so 
happy.” 

In one of those pensive moments I thought about who had the good sense
to invent grandchildren. There must have been a quiet moment in heaven 
when God looked around and said, “It's too quiet here. What can we do 
to liven things up a little?” 

Everybody looked at each other and the silence got quieter. It was then
that God had one of those moments that changes everything. He smiled 
and looked at everyone and said, “I know exactly what is needed.” Then 
God created his greatest work, grandchildren. 

I like what the Bible says along this line. "Children's children are the
crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers." 
(Proverbs 17:6). 

God seems to like the idea of grandchildren. "But the mercy of the LORD
is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his 
righteousness unto children's children;" (Psalms 103:17). 

Silence may be golden but it does not compare to the silver trumpet of
grandchildren all talking at the same time.
