Each is a God’s masterpiece with different names.” – Unknown Your intelligence and energy for life have been my greatest guidance and a good source of inspiration. I am grateful to be rested with someone as knowledgeable as you. There are grandmothers out there who would move heaven and earth for their grandchildren. Janice Elliott-Howard

As time passes, we let go of many relationships, but what we share will never be forgotten. The love that I have for you is unique, and it is not something that can be replaced or forgotten. Don’t forget that spending time with your Amma is still the best gift you can give her. Take time out of your busy day to call or actually visit. Mamie doesn’t mind how long you stay – what matters is time well spent. Know what your grandmother likes or enjoys and do that with her. Grandmothers are voices of the past and role models of the present. Grandmothers open the doors to the future.” – Helen Ketchum She isn’t afraid of drinking a little alcohol every now and then, although she never goes overboard. We should all have one person who knows how to bless us despite the evidence. Grandmother was that person to me.” – Phyllis TherouxGrandmotherhood initiated me into a world of play, where all things became fresh, alive, and honest again through my grandchildren's eyes. Mostly, it retaught me love." – Sue Monk Kidd She has introduced me to many interesting foods over the years: Vienna sausage sandwiches, caffeine free cola, and cream soda. Being a grandmother provides you with an opportunity to help your grandchild gain a sense of who he or she really is. Deborah Williams and Linda A. Johnson She’s instilled grit in me. When I was younger, anytime I would say, “I don’t want to,” she would say, “But you’re going to have to.” I remember sometimes getting upset when she would say that, but it taught me that I can’t run away from things that I don’t want to do. When I have to, I have to.

Mawmaw, I’m telling you…the calendar is wrong on this one, because you haven’t aged a day since I graduated high school. I’ve seen the pictures from when you were a young couple. You’re still as crazy-in-love looking now as you were then. Love that about you two. I want to love like my grandmother, who loved a woman like Joseph loved Mary. Someone so imperfect, so human, brave enough to love someone who already knows God. R. YS Perez If you’re wondering why I’m not married yet, it’s because I’m waiting until I meet someone who looks at me the way you two look at each other.My Grandmother would say, ‘Make sure you look good. Make sure you speak well. Make sure you remain that Southern gentleman that I’ve taught you to be.’” – Jamie Foxx Whenever I look in your eyes, I always realize that I would never find a love purer than this anywhere else. It is only you who can give this kind of love to me, selfless and unconditional. And so our mothers and grandmothers have, more often than not anonymously, handed on the creative spark, the seed of the flower they themselves never hoped to see — or like a sealed letter they could not plainly read." —Alice Walker

To receive your unconditional love, I didn’t have to work hard for it; it was always a given. You have made me feel like I deserve to be loved, and for that, it is you who deserve my greatest love and respect. You put the “grand” in “grandparent.” (Mostly because you left the “parent” part to Mom and Dad and spoiled me like crazy.) My grandmother used to say life was so much easier when you were simple-minded. It’s taken me almost my whole life to understand what she meant.”—Brian Andreas, "Still Mostly True" You have a large heart that can forgive anyone who commits a mistake that he has it in himself to make up for. You have done the very same for me; you have always been able to find it in your heart to forgive me. You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother.”—Albert Einstein

She has created an amazing group of people I dearly love, and fosters the idea of “family.” I know my family would not be as close as we are if it wasn’t for her. When she smiles, the lines in her face become epic narratives that trace the stories of generations that no book can replace.” – Curtis Tyrone Jones
