Becoming a grandmother is wonderful. One moment you're just a mother. The next you are all-wise and prehistoric.
A grandmother pretends she doesn't know who you are on Halloween.
You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother.
We should all have one person who knows how to bless us despite the evidence, Grandmother was that person to me.
