Happy Mother's Day 2010 to Moms and Grandmothers and Great Grandmothers



When a child is born, so are grandmothers. -Judith Levy

Between the earth and sky above,
nothing can match a Grandmother’s love.



Walking With Grandma
(Author Unknown)

I like to walk with Grandma,
Her steps are short like mine.
She doesn’t say “Now hurry up.”
She always takes her time.

I like to walk with Grandma,
Her eyes see things like mine do…
Wee pebbles bright, a funny cloud,
Half hidden drops of dew.

Most people have to hurry,
They do not stop and see…
I’m glad that God made Grandma,
Unrushed and young like me!

Everything my Grandma does
is something special made with love.
She takes the time to add the touch
that says “I love you very much”.

She fixes hurts with a kiss and a smile
and tells good stories grandma-style.
It’s warm and cozy on her lap
for secret telling or a nap.

And when I say my prayers at night
I ask God to bless and hold her tight.
‘Cause when it comes to giving hugs,
my Grandma’s arms are filled with love!

Grandparents and grandchildren,
Together they create
A chain of love
Linking the past
With the future.
The chain may lengthen,
But it will never part.

MOMMY
"Magic Mommy Kisses"

Each night I tuck you into bed,
I brush my hand across your head,
and in each tiny little fist
I place a magic mommy kiss.

Full of love and hope so bright
To keep you safely through the night,
Mommy kisses in your hand
To guide you off to slumberland.

If you should dream of monsters mean
Or witches with faces masked in green,
Of snakes that squeeze you oh-so-tight
Or darkness with no sign of light.

When nightmares hold you stiff with fear
A part of mommy still is near,
Just open up your hand and blow
One mommy kiss and nightmares go.

. . . and everyone should have a Great Grandmother!!!!
