Gracefully Aging, Day 24: The Joy of Grandparenting



One of the biggest blessings of getting older is become a grandparent.  Being Nana to three precious little boys is one of the greatest joys I've ever experienced! Here are some quotes about grandparenting.


What a bargain grandchildren are! I give them my loose change, and they give me a million dollars' worth of pleasure. ~Gene Perret

What children need most are the essentials that grandparents provide in abundance. They give unconditional love, kindness, patience, humor, comfort, lessons in life. And, most importantly, cookies. ~Rudolph Giuliani

Grandchildren bring a whole new dimension of love.~My mom, Cynthia Garrett



Our grandchildren accept us for ourselves, without rebuke or effort to change us, as no one in our entire lives has ever done, not our parents, siblings, spouses, friends - and hardly ever our own grown children. ~Ruth Goode



It is as grandmothers that our mothers come into the fullness of their grace. ~Christopher Morley

I would love it if my grandchildren someday feel this way about me.

Life Made Lovely: Lovely Grandchildren

Being "Nana" to two little boys has become one of the greatest joys of my life! For Life Made Lovely today, I'm sharing some pictures of my little darlings from my recent trip to Texas. Hope you enjoy!
