“I noticed you two are always holding hands everywhere you go?
Why is that? ”Their granddaughter asked. “I’d really like to know.”
Grandma and Grandma smiled…Grandpa was the first to say,
“The reason we hold hands…goes back to that very first day.
when I told your Grandma I loved her,
I was afraid of what she might do…
But when she looked at me, she smiled and said
“You know…I love you too.”
“Hold my hand is all I could think to say..
because I knew if she wasn’t holding my hand
I could have easily floated away.”
“But you’ve been married for 40 years!” Their granddaughter said.
“I guess I don’t understand…why after all these years
are you two still holding hands?”
Together they looked at their granddaughter
and as the wrinkles on his face turned red…
Grandpa looked into Grandma’s eyes and smiled…
“Same reason.” was all he said.
