Aren’t they the best thing. A while ago now as she’s older but carrying granddaughter up the stairs to bed she suddenly looked at me snuggled into my neck and said “ oh Granny I love you so much” absolutely priceless!

My lovely little granddaughter aged 3 was watching me get undressed the other day, when i took my bra off she said in a low voice WOW ! then I love you grandma. It's a long time anyone said that when they'd seen me naked lol .

When you get the wind knocked out of you by DGS charging out of the school door and leaping up at you for a bear hug.

My 7 year old GD always holds my hand when we see her, and yesterday told me I was her "bestest-ever Mamma"

I love the feeling of the moment you feel a smaller hand reaching out for yours when you are walking along together... and not only little hands now as eldest DGD is still happy to hold my hand

Or when the grandson calls downstairs ‘grandma! Can you wipe my bottom?’. ?

Your darling GD (22mths) hold up her arms to be picked up, then asks you to get an annoying bogey out of her nose, guiding your finger, then saying 'there!' in a soothing voice, kissing you and grinning. Love her!
