Irina Baronove-Tennant: "It's so important to give your children and grandchildren inspiration ... Teach them to notice, to pay attention, to appreciate, and to be inquisitive. Don't just look, try to see."


Dave Barry:  "The best babysitters, of course, are the baby's grandparents. You feel completely comfortable entrusting your baby to them for long periods, which is why most grandparents flee to Florida."

Thomas Berry Brazelton:  "Grandparents who want to be truly helpful will do well to keep their mouths shut and their opinions to themselves until these are requested."


Pam Brown:  "Becoming a grandmother is wonderful. One moment you're just a mother. The next you are all-wise and prehistoric."


Pearl S. Buck:  "Perhaps one has to be very old before one learns to be amused rather than shocked."


Gail Lumet Buckley:  "Family faces are magic mirrors. Looking at people who belong to us, we see the past, present and future."


Have a wonderful day, all you lovely grandparents!
