Polly is certainly a fun grandma who so enjoys having her grandchildren in her home. She shares some of the activities she and her husband Cliff like to do when the grandkids are with them. We also learned so much about the benefits of halotherapy , a dry sauna that provides the health benefits of salt to treat a long list of ailments. Polly helps us be in awe of how God provides healing through so many of the things around us including, colors, light, and especially salt.
