My favourite book when I was young ws Louisa May Alcott's Little Women. I read it again and again and still remember it fondly.

jingl, just so we could identify the winning post - i.e. if we had 600 entries, the random number generator picks one number between 1 and 600 and that poster is then the winner.

It's grand to have the chance to help out our children and to have time to spend with our grandchildren. If we can help to bring some fun and happiness into their lives, then surely that's a grand thing to do!

It's having the patience and experience to really appreciate every glorious moment with the grandchildren. As a parent you are often so busy the years rush by - as a grandparent you have none of the responsibility and worries so you can relax and enjoy your time with the kids. Plus it's hilarious listening to the parents complaining about the kids doing things you remember them doing as a child (and that you complained about too).

its grand being a grandparent,
opportunities should never be missed.
Being around to help and support,
Or just be a listing ear,
we can spoil and treat them,
And can teach them so much,
But most of the time they see us friends,
Including us in their games,
We always love to play,
Keeping us young in our old fashioned way

Having the combined wisdom of Gransnet at one's fingertips helps when faced with grand parenting dilemmas. Watching grandchildren grow, learn and develop their individual personalities is a delight and a privilege.

Being a parent is the practice run, being a grand parent is when everything's perfect
