  1. looking for the song by the Judds that they put outin the early 2000. It's about grandparents. The book goes with it. The story is about looking into thier eyes and you see they are the same....

    1. Guardian Angels. by the Judds. A hundred year old photograph stares out from a frame. And if you look real close you'll see, our eyes are just the same. I never met them face to face, but I still know them well ... from the stories my dear grandmama tells.
