ElizabethAnn Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 "It is a great shock to realize that the very children you yelled at to clean their rooms such a short time ago are now in charge of your grandchildren." --Susan M. Kettmann, M.S.Ed., The 12 Rules of Grandparenting" "Grandchildren don't make a woman feel old; it's being married to a grandfather that bothers her." --Janet Lanese, Grandmothers Are Like Snowflakes... No Two Are Alike "Few mistakes can be made by a mother-in-law who is willing to babysit." -- Anonymous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaine Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Ok, here is a joke: One Sunday morning just before church little Johnny (all cleaned up in his Sunday best) slipped in a huge mud puddle. His Mama and Grannie were horrified to see his best clothes soaked with mud and water! Johnny's mother threw her hands in the air and shouted," Johnny, every time you pull a stunt like this you give me another gray hair!!!" Johnny slowly looked at his gray haired Grannie and said, "Well, if that is the case, Mama, then you must have been an awful kid..."

TeyandTy's Mom Posted June 16, 2006 Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 Great quotes! I thought both my boys and my mother would go crazy while we were in Texas this past week. They wanted to call her everyday! Sabrina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mshirst Posted June 16, 2006 Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 No cowboy was ever faster on the draw than a grandparent pulling a baby picture out of a wallet. ~Author Unknown Nobody can do for little children what grandparents do. Grandparents sort of sprinkle stardust over the lives of little children. ~Alex Haley The best baby-sitters, 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. ~Dave Barry What a bargain grandchildren are! I give them my loose change, and they give me a million dollars' worth of pleasure. ~Gene Perret 42774[/snapback] Stephanie, love the contrast between Haley's and Barry's! Thanks for sharing these.

Stork Central Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Grandpa Dropped His Glasses Grandpa dropped his glasses once In a pot of dye, And when he put them on again He saw a purple sky. Purple fires were rising up From a purple hill, Men were grinding purple cider at a purple mill. Purple Adeline was playing With a purple doll; Little purple dragon flies Were crawling up the wall. And at the supper-table He got crazy as a loon From eating purple apple dumplings With a purple spoon. --Leroy F. Jackson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
