I've been a godmother loads of times, but being a grandmother is better than anything.
A mother becomes a true grandmother the day she stops noticing the terrible things her children do because she is so enchanted with the wonderful things her grandchildren do.
Becoming a grandmother is an extension of a woman's personality. It doesn't matter how many times you become one; the excitement is the same.
Grandmothers are to life what the Ph.D. is to education. There is nothing you can feel, taste, expect, predict, or want that the grandmothers in your family do not know about in detail.
She would have thrived as a grandmother. I know how much she would have contributed to their lives, and I am sad they will miss out on that.
When you think of the warm grandmotherly type of character, you don't think of Elaine Stritch.
I had a very close relationship with my grandmother. She actually helped raise me.
I guess I had it made. My mother gave me advice - she taught me that women like to be looked in the eye - and my grandmother gave me condoms.
Becoming a grandmother has felt like being a mother.
I love being a grandmother.
Though I was a mother at 21, being a grandmother makes the whole thing absolutely normal and gorgeous. The relief, the joy of being a grandmother is wonderful.
My grandmother spent a lot of time with us when we were growing up. She did the school runs and fed us when my mum was busy. To be with her was to really be at home.
My mother would have been so crazy about my grandchildren. She was a fabulous grandmother, and she would have been absolutely crazed as a great-grandmother. I miss that part of her.
