Nobody can do for little children what grandparents do. Grandparents sort of sprinkle stardust over the lives of little children.
A grandparent is old on the outside but young on the inside. 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.
When grandparents enter the door, discipline flies out the window.
Becoming a grandmother is wonderful. One moment you're just a mother. The next you are all-wise and prehistoric.
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!
Perfect love sometimes does not come until the first grandchild.
If I had known how wonderful it would be to have grandchildren, I'd have had them first.
What a bargain grandchildren are! I give them my loose change, and they give me a million dollars' worth of pleasure.

You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother.
Few things are more delightful than grandchildren fighting over your lap.

We should all have one person who knows how to bless us despite the evidence, Grandmother was that person to me.
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.
Grandparents are there to help the child get into mischief they haven't thought of yet.
What is it about grandparents that is so lovely? I'd like to say that grandparents are God's gifts to children.
A grandmother pretends she doesn't know who you are on Halloween.
