Summary
Let Us Count the Ways...
Are the ways of good grandmothers endless? Perhaps! But this charming ode makes a good dent in the list, offering 101, and counting, examples of what makes a grandmother a wonderful:
confidant/advisor, explorer, partner, teacher, treat-and-surprise giver, transportation facilitator, teammate, bandmate, stylist, anytime, every time cheerleader/handholder--and friend!
To name just a few!
Here's both a loving tribute-gift for a special grandparent or parent, and a nifty "reminder" to give a beloved grandchild.
What may be best about a good granny is... you can always count on her!
