As grandparents we love to spoil our grandchildren no matter whether they are tots or teens. The problem is we never know what to buy them, and end up giving them money. Or sometimes we will give them something that may seem precious to us, but at their age to them its something old and worn. They really haven't learned the value of a gift from the heart yet.
Then many years later they end up with so few treasures to help them relate to special moments that they had with their grandparents. Of course there are photos which are wonderful for this, but most often photos create memories of who the grandparents were on the whole, and don't lock in any real special one on one memories.
All too often on a grandchild's wedding day they have to celebrate this wonderful occasion without one or both of the grandparent's enjoying it with them, because they have passed away. It creates a little bit of sadness on what is otherwise a most memorable occasion for the grandchild.
Then there is that special moment where the grown grandchildren now take their place in the world as parents. Once again often their memories will wander back to the memory of those very special people in their lives, who may no longer be with them. They truly wish that their children could have shared some of the love and special meaning in their lives as they did with you as their grandparents.
Finally, hopefully the day comes that they too will take on the role of grandparents and they will now see the world from your eyes as they take on this responsibility.
There is something very special that you can give your grandchildren that will bring your memory even closer to them at any one of these most special moments. There is a way that you can preserve special memories way beyond what a photograph could ever do. Its called the grandparent's time capsule and its unique and almost has a mystery to it. It has a way of providing comfort through the years even though it remains sealed. Its almost like knowing you are really there if they truly need you even though you have left this world a long time ago.
Building a grandparent's time capsule with your grandchildren is a wonderful experience, and you can be sure it is going to bring great joy now as well as in the future.
