Grandma Gone Wild

Grandma Gone Wild is more than a name. It’s the way I choose to show up in the world, especially for my grandchildren. I have nine of them, and each one has their own light, their own rhythm, and their own relationship with me.

I’m not always with them as much as I’d like to be. Life pulls in different directions, and schedules don’t always line up. But that doesn’t change the love I have for them or the responsibility I feel to be a steady voice in their lives. I take the moments I do have seriously, and I stay prayerful and intentional even when I can’t be right there.

Being Grandma Gone Wild means being present in spirit, available in truth, and committed to pouring into them however and whenever I can. Sometimes it’s a conversation. Sometimes it’s a text or a surprise gift or a story that reminds them where they come from. I make it known that they’re loved, seen, and supported.

I want them to know that their grandmother is strong, funny, honest, and still chasing purpose. I want them to see that life doesn’t stop just because you reach a certain age. And I want them to carry that mindset into their own journeys.

I believe I can fly.  I want my grandchildren to believe that they can fly too!
