Grandma Stories About Being a Grandma and Grandpa - Grandparenting is the Best!
Kids luggage, specially designed suitcases for kids, babies and toddlers are very popular for children of all ages for travel or when going to Grandpa and Grandma’s house for a visit. Children enjoy having their own luggage to call their own and put their clothes and toys in when traveling out of town, and since Grandpa and I have grandchildren that enjoy visiting, we thought it would be a great idea to look for kids suitcases for sale

Yep, I’m going to be a grandma again, and I’m so happy and excited since hearing the news, I can’t help but make an announcement on Grandma Stories! I still consider myself a new grandma, since my two grandchildren are still so young, but now we’re having grandchild number three! Grandpa and I are both beside ourselves with excitement at the upcoming birth of my third grandchild (his fourth), and I’m doing my best to control my desire to rush off to the baby stores and shop till I drop!
Even though I don’t have an official grandma name or nickname quite yet, it really does not matter if I chose a name for myself or not, because the grandchildren are going to ultimately decide on my/our nicknames. My grandchildren are so young, but starting to talk more at this point, so there is plenty of time for choosing grandma and grandpa nicknames. I can think of a whole variety of grandparent names to choose from for my/our grandchildren to call us that we would prefer, but when it’s all said and done, the grandkids will make the decision and I’m fine with that.

Valentine’s Day is a special holiday for sweethearts, friends, lovers, spouses etc and that includes grandparents, on February 14 of each year. Valentine’s Day for us this year will be spent visiting with our grandchildren and grown children, out of town. There will likely be the Valentine’s Day cards and small gift-giving, even if the gifts are very cheap from stores like Walmart or Target.
Valentine’s Day gifts for lovers or wives typically mean sending flowers of one kind or another, but considering how overpriced flowers are during the Valentine’s holiday, flowers just never cross our minds to give as a gift to each other. I don’t mind at all either because there is really no good reason I can think of to spend so much money on Valentine’s Day flower bouquets that are just going to die in a few days.

Grandma is my chosen nickname, even though I considered a variety of grandma and grandpa nicknames including “nana” when I found out I was going to become a grandparent for the very first time.
For a little while I struggled coming up with a nickname for myself because, to be honest, I truly felt I was too young to be a grandma. There’s a joke about being too young to become a grandparent, but I don’t remember how it goes anymore. Something like, “don’t call me grandma”, I think. Maybe my memory is starting to go, I don’t know.
Nana is a nice nickname I guess, but it just didn’t fit with my personality. It comes across to me as an old fashioned nickname and I’m not old fashioned one bit. Some nicknames for grandparents that I’ve seen just sound ridiculous to me. Nicknames like Busha, MomMom, PopPop, Oma and Opa, Meme and Pepe just don’t fit.

Good Lord, what is the world coming to? The Poll Dancing Doll must be someone’s idea of a joke, but presenting a pole dancer doll as a “cool gadget” is simply disgusting!
Maybe this pole dancing doll is where Miley Cyrus got the stupid idea from when she recently did her own pole dancing bit that had parents upset.
Seriously, a Poll Dancing Doll? For who? Kids? I think not!
The Pole Dancing Doll is described this way: “It rotates. It has blinking lights, a disco ball, and a pole. And it’s probably one of the wrongest toys you can give to any girl.”

Grandmother poems for and about Grandma’s are a real treasure to be enjoyed and shared throughout the generations. Here is a collection of some of the best Grandma Poems on the web.
If you enjoy reading Nana Poems, Grandma and Grandpa quotes, or those commonly referred to as funeral poems or missing grandma poems like the rest of us do, you will surely enjoy these.
“As My Mother Mothers Me”
Grandmothers are mothers who are grand,
Restoring the sense that our most precious things
Are those that do not change much over time.
No love of childhood is more sublime,
Demanding little, giving on demand,
More inclined than most to grant the wings
On which we fly off to enchanted lands.
Though grandmothers must serve as second mothers,
Helping out with young and restless hearts,
Each has all the patience wisdom brings,
Remembering our passions more than others,
Soothing us with old and well-honed arts.

Being a grandma allows me to enjoy all the wonderful Grandma and Grandpa quotes and old sayings that didn’t have any real meaning to me until I became a Grandma. My favorite Grandma quote so far is, “What goes on at Grandma’s house stays at Grandma’s house”, and boy oh boy ain’t that the truth!
Enjoy this list of some of my favorite grandma sayings and quotes for and about grandparents and grandchildren that always bring a smile to my face. I’ll also include a few grandpa quotes too, since what happens at grandpa’s house should stay at grandpa’s house too, don’t cha think? Grandparenting has GOT to be a pat-on-the-back from Heaven above because of all our hard work while raising our own children.
Here is what I believe to be some of the best grandparents quotes and old sayings for us all to enjoy. Feel free to comment and leave one of your own favorite Grandma or Grandpa quotes or sayings as well.
