Our Preschoolers Love Grandparents Very Much!

 

WHAT ARE GRANDPARENTS FOR?

Grandparents are for stories
about things of long ago.
Grandparents are for caring
about all the things you know...
Grandparents are for rocking you
and singing you to sleep,
Grandparents are for giving you
nice memories to keep...
Grandparents are for knowing
all the things you're dreaming of...
But, most importantly of all,
grandparents are for love.
