"In the Cookies of Life - Grandmother's are the Chocolate Chips!"
To all grandmothers, whose wisdom, courage and love have paved the path for future generations - we thank you!
Grandmother-grandchild relationships are simple. Grandmas are short on criticism and long on love.
-- Author Unknown
A Grandmother is someone with silver in their hair and gold in their hearts
Grandmothers are voices of the past.
Role models of the present
They open the doors to the future.
A Grandmother's Love Is Always In Bloom.
Grandma's my name, spoiling's my game.
When you need a hug call 1-800-Grandma
Grandmothers Love? - children say it best:
Age 10
"Sweet, kind, gentle the words to describe my loving grandmother her heart as big as the ocean not to be filled with water but love."

What Are Grandmas For? A poem

WHAT ARE GRANDMAS FOR?
Grandmas are for stories about things of long ago.
Grandmas are for caring about all the things you know...
Grandmas are for rocking you and singing you to sleep.
Grandmas are for giving you nice memories to keep...
Grandmas are for knowing all the things you're dreaming of...
But, most importantly of all, Grandmas are for love. ~ Author Unknown ~

* Grandmothers are voices of the past. Role models of the present They open the doors to the future. *
Focus on the wonderful role grandparents play in the lives of young children by: 1. Giving of themselves When we make time for young children, something wonderful happens....we become embedded in the child's memory. A few moments on the porch listening to the birds, a walk down the street to visit a neighbor's dog, or just sitting together and looking out the window at the snowflakes--these moments make a young child feel secure, loved, and able to better understand the world of which she is a part. 2. Bringing Comfort and Culture ....grandparents offer soothing care - the gentle, familiar voice of a grandparent can offer comfort and can calm an upset child. ....grandparents help us discover our roots - whether a native language or a favorite family recipe, children discover their background and understand themselves better through the things their grandparents share...and grandparents often discover how creative they can be! 3. Second Time Around Grandparenting often brings opportunities to do things you have not done in years--coloring, playing on a swing set, going to a play ground. Sometimes it can also be a chance to reflect on routines and practices you did with your own children when they were young. 4. Grandparents' Day In Try to spend one day a week at my grandchild's home for a 'grandma's day in' in order to bond with my grandchild and give Mother and Dad time to themselves. It has been wonderful and the parents love it. It's been a "win,win" thing! Causes close relationships

Grandparents and Child Development
Grandparents play a vital role in maintaining the family network.

Grandparents and Communication:
Research by the Newcastle Family Studies Centre suggests that interpersonal communication is fundamentally important to a successful ageing process. The grandparents in this study said repeatedly that what mattered to them was being able to chat to someone ("anyone who'll listen") about anything and everything - the ordinary, everyday things. It was clear that many of these grandparents were the ones who maintained the family networks, who made it their business to keep in touch.
Grandparents and Child Development:
Grandparents are a tremendous resource for their grandchildren. They can share their past through stories and songs - an important step towards literacy - and help children discover their roots by sharing a native language,favourite family recipe or hobby.
British families are changing rapidly but grandparents are a constant source of support both to their own children and their grandchildren. They are often "the glue that helps to bind a family together."
A study by the Newcastle Family Studies Centre concluded that grandparents are viewed by grandchildren as fun companions nowadays, rather than the authoritarian figures of the past. Many children confide in their grandparents if they have problems.

First Grandmother in the White House
Listen to what Marian Robinson (Michelle Obama's mom) has to say.....
Jan. 20, 2009- Beyond the politics of the day I was thrilled to see family working together by including extended family. It brought tears to my eyes when I heard the words "Grandma Marian Robinson will be moving into the White House with her family!" Just stop and reflect on the importance of that example to the world. Here is a family that practices what it preaches. Grass root values in action and 2 very happy granddaughters because they will not have a stranger looking after them when Dad and Mom are away but they will have their beloved Grandma with them. Watch this video about Grandma Marian Robinson. It will warm your heart that she is living in the White House.
