Ever since Grandpa got Parkinson's, Noah has noticed he hasn't been the same. He doesn't have as much energy as he used to, and sometimes when he's excited or happy, he can't smile. Noah worries that Parkinson's is his fault, but Grandpa assures him it's not-and it won't stop him from having fun at the beach!

Karen Kingsbury's sweet and poignant message about how quickly childhood passes and the special bond between parents and sons will delight moms and dads no matter how old or young their sons are. Always loved, always treasured, always your little boy.
