Grandparents

-Grandmas are moms with lots of frosting.

-What a bargain grandchildren are! I give them my loose change, and they give me a million dollars' worth of pleasure for it.

-Grandmothers are just 'antique' little girls.

-Perfect love sometimes does not come until the first grandchild.

-A grandmother is a babysitter who watches the kids instead of the television.

-Never have children, only grandchildren.

-Becoming a grandmother is wonderful. One moment you're just a mother. The next you are all-wise and prehistoric.

-Grandchildren don't stay young forever, which is good because Grandfathers have only so many horsy rides in them.

-When grandpa enters the door, discipline flies out the window.

-Grandma always made you feel she had been waiting to see just you all day and now the day was complete.

-Grandmas never run out of hugs or cookies.

-Grandmas hold our tiny hands for just a little while, but our hearts forever.

-If I had known how wonderful it would be to have grandchildren, I'd have had them first.

-My grandkids believe I'm the oldest thing in the world. And after two or three hours with them, I believe it, too.

-If becoming a grandmother was only a matter of choice, I should advise every one of you straight away to become one. There is no fun for old people like it.

-It's such a grand thing to be a mother of a mother - that's why the world calls her grandmother.

-Grandchildren are God's way of compensating us for growing old.

-You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother.

-An hour with your grandchildren can make you feel young again. Anything longer than that, and you start to age quickly.

-The best baby-sitters, of course, are the baby's grandparents. You feel completely comfortable entrusting your baby to them for long periods, which is why most grandparents flee to Florida.

-I wish I had the energy that my grandchildren have - if only for self-defense.

-Grandmother-grandchild relationships are simple. Grandmas are short on criticism and long on love.

-Nobody can do for little children what grandparents do Grandparents sort of sprinkle stardust over the lives of little children.

-Grandmother - a wonderful mother with lots of practice.

-A grandparent is old on the outside but young on the inside.

-One of the most powerful handclasps is that of a new grandbaby around the finger of a grandfather.

-It's amazing how grandparents seem so young once you become one.

-If your baby is 'beautiful and perfect, never cries or fusses, sleeps on schedule and burps on demand, an angel all the time,' you're the grandma.

-Grandparents are similar to a piece of string - handy to have around. and easily wrapped around the fingers of their grandchildren.

-Grandchildren don't make a man feel old; it's the knowledge that he's married to a grandmother.
