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

Never have children, only grandchildren.
~Gore Vidal

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

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

just you all day and now the day was complete.

grandchildren, I'd have had them first.

And after two or three hours with them, I believe it, too.

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.

~Mary H. Waldrip

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

again. Anything longer than that, and you start to age quickly.

The best baby-sitters, of course, are the baby's grandparents.

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

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. ~Alex Haley

One of the most powerful hand clasps is that of a new
grandbaby around the finger of a grandfather.

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. ~Author Unknown

What is it about grandparents that is so lovely?

And if they can but see, hear and feel what these people


have to give, they can mature at a fast rate.
~Bill Cosby

Grandchildren don't make a man feel old; it's the


knowledge that he's married to a grandmother.
