Loving Grandchildren Near and Far

from Only For A Season · host Mel Cruzado

Loving Grandchildren Near and FarBecoming a grandparent changes your heart in ways you never expect.In this episode of Only for a Season, I share the story of becoming a grandparent for the first time and how that love only grew as our family expanded. I talk about the joy of holding a grandchild for the first time, the pain of distance when some grandchildren move far away, and the lessons learned about staying connected across miles.This episode is especially for grandparents who have grandchildren living out of state. The worries, the missing of everyday moments, and the question of whether the bond will remain strong. I share what we learned through phone calls, Facetime, visits, birthdays, and being intentional with love.It is a reminder that while distance changes how we connect, it does not change how deeply we love.The episode closes with encouragement for grandparents to cherish every season, build strong relationships early, and keep their grandchildren covered in prayer.Because these seasons move quickly, and grandchildren truly are a gift, only for a season.
