I thought the best place to start is by sharing how I got the name Gigi in the first place…
I’ve always believed that the very first grandchild should have the honor of naming their grandma. So I waited patiently for my first grand—who just so happens to have been born on the 4th of July 🧨 (I always tell her she is my little firecracker 🎆❣️).
As my grands and I travel together—especially on our trips up the canyon to McCall, Idaho where Grumpa lives (about 2 hours from Boise…more on that later 😉)—we love to sing songs, play 21 Questions, and I Spy.
One of my favorite things to do is sing Jesus Loves Me with them… but instead of “me,” I put in each grand’s name.
It goes like this—
Jesus loves Tyla, this I know ❣️
For the Bible tells me so ❣️
Little ones to Him belong ❣️
They are weak, but He is strong 💪❣️
Yes, Jesus loves Tyla ❣️
Yes, Jesus loves Tyla ❣️
Yes, Jesus loves Tyla ❣️
The Bible tells me so ❣️
But what she heard was something a little different…
“Gigi loves Tyla, this I know ❣️”
And from that moment on…
I became Gigi—the joyful lover of my grands ❣️
And this blog is where I’ll share all of our joyful adventures ❣️
