Gorgeous Gramma Day....

Who is a Gorgeous Grandma? She is every woman over fifty, sixty, or seventy who
Believes she has her whole life ahead of her, not her whole life behind her.
Wants to get the most out of every day of her life.
Wants to thrive, not just survive
Cares for her mind and her body
Remains adaptable to life’s bittersweet as well as sweet.
Cherishes herself as much as she cherishes her loved ones.
Refuses to remain static - who is always open to learning, to new ideas, to new challenges and to new experiences
Loves life - and lets everyone know it!
And, for our Single Gorgeous Grandmas ~Recovers after loss and learns to love again.

  10. I became a Grandma for the first time last year at age 62. This is a wonderful sentiment which really hit the spot.
    The only problem is that the older you are when you became a grandma it is not quite so easy to get down on the floor to play. I remember my Mum getting down to play with me and my brother (she also used to climb trees). We used to have hilarious fun but my grandma was too old and infirm to join in.

    Here's to all grandmas, nans, nannys, grannys or whatever you are called. Lift a glass and toast yourselves.

    Thank you Paulette for the wonderful thoughts.

    Lots of luv
