Grandparent Love….

Over on NanaHood’s Facebook page I asked the following question, What is the best thing about being a grandparent? And boy did I get some answers about Grandparent love!

The answers were so touching I decided to share  some of them with you here. Maybe you have a different definition of grandparent love. Please add your thoughts in the comment section! For those loyal NanaHood friends who definition is not included…stay tuned. I’m going to do a Part 11 soon!
