A GRANDMOTHER IS

...someone who loves you

...older than you but sometimes
thinks she's a young girl

...nice for making crisp chicken and jello

...anyone she wants to be

...your third to the closed relative

...someone who gives you presents
for Christmas

...OLD...at least 80

...someone that's handy if you
want cookies or candy

A GRANDMOTHER

...makes good pies

...cleans the bathroom and makes beds

...knits, sews, does dishes, cleans closets,
plays games and sends presents

...hugs you very tight

...reads stories and tucks you in at night

...listens to you and says everything
you do is very nice

...plays the piano for you

...has good conversations with you
about your relatives

GRANDMOTHERS ARE DIFFERENT FROM MOTHERS BECAUSE

...they can't swim

...they don't spanK you and
stop mother when she does

...mothers scold more and better

...grandmothers go to work and
mothers don't do anything

...mother gives me shots and
grandma gives me frogs

...a grandmother gets married to a grandfather first,
a mother to a father last

...grandmother loves you ALL the time

...a mother is someone who takes care of you...
a grandmother is someone who LIKES you

IN CONCLUSION...

A GRANDMOTHER IS HAPPINESS!

A GRANDMOTHER IS LOVE!
