GRANDPARENTING POSTERS
A mother becomes a true GRANDMOTHER the day she stops noticing the terrible things her children do, because she is so enchanted with the wonderful things her GRANDCHILDREN do. ~ Lois Wyse
The only thing better than having you for PARENTS is my children having you for GRANDPARENTS
(A thankful son)
What children
need most are
the essentials that
GRANDPARENTS
provide in abundance.
They give
unconditional love,
kindness, patience,
humour, comfort,
lessons in life, and
most importantly,
cookies.
~Rudolph Giuliani
Because GRANDPARENTS
are free to love and
guide and befriend
the young without
having to take daily
responsibility for
them, they can often
reach out past pride
and fear of failure
to close the space
between the
generations.
~Jimmy Carter
The nearest thing
to the love of God
is
the love of
GRANDPARENTS
To see yourself
and your kids
in
GRANDCHILDREN
. . .
isn’t it wonderful!
GRANDPARENTS
never run out of
hugs,
kisses,
cookies
and ice-cream.
A GRANDPARENT’s
love is
strong and deep,
filled with memories
to cherish
and keep.
What a bargain GRANDCHILDREN
are!
I give them my loose change, and they give me a million dollars’
worth of pleasure. ~Gene Perret
Perfect love sometimes
does not come until the first
GRANDCHILD. ~Welsh Proverb
GRANDCHILDREN don’t stay young forever, which is good because PAPAS have only so many horsey rides in them. ~ Gene Perret
GRANDMA always
made you feel
she had been waiting
to see just you
all day
and now the day
was complete. ~Marcy DeMaree
GRANDCHILDREN
are the dots
that connect
the lines from
generation to
generation. ~Lois Wyse
Everyone needs
to have access
both to
GRANDPARENTS
and
GRANDCHILDREN
in order to be
a full human
being. ~Margaret Mead
Few things are more delightful
than GRANDCHILDREN
fighting over your lap.
~ Doug Larson
The simplest toy,
one which
even the youngest
child
can operate,
is called a
GRANDPARENT. ~Sam Levenson
One of the most powerful
handclasps is that of a new GRANDBABY
around the finger of a
GRANDFATHER ~ Joy Hargrove
Every generation
revolts
against its fathers
and makes friends
with its
GRANDFATHERS. ~ Lewis Mumford
It’s amazing how GRANDPARENTS seem so young once you become one.
You’ve got to do
your own growing, no matter how tall your GRANDFATHER was. ~ Irish Saying
GRANDCHILDREN are God’s way
of compensating us
for growing old. ~ Mary H. Waldrip
You do not really
understand
something
unless
you can explain it
to your
GRANDMOTHER.
~ Proverb
Just about the time
a woman thinks
her work is done,
she becomes a
GRANDMOTHER.
A man begins to show his age at
about the same time he begins to show
pictures of his GRANDCHILDREN
