The Miracle - "A single living cell in the mother's womb gives rise to a human being with all his/her complex systems after a nine-month adventure."
And to the grandparents a few platitudes which suddenly become true.
Grandchildren are the dots that connect the lines from generation to generation. ~Lois Wyse
When a child is born, so are grandmothers. ~Judith Levy
Never have children, only grandchildren. ~Gore Videl
Becoming a grandmother is wonderful. One moment you're just a mother. The next you are all-wise and prehistoric. ~Pam Brown
Being grandparents sufficiently removes us from the responsibilities so that we can be friends. ~Allan Frome
When grandparents enter the door, discipline flies out the window. ~Ogden Nash
Grandfathers are for loving and fixing things. ~Author Unknown
Everyone needs to have access both to grandparents and grandchildren in order to be a full human being. ~Margaret Mead
A grandma's name is little less in love than is the doting title of a mother. ~William Shakespeare
The best place to be when you're sad is Grandpa's lap. ~Author Unknown
It's amazing how grandparents seem so young once you become one. ~Author Unknown
Soon I will be an old, white-haired lady, into whose lap someone places a baby, saying, "Smile, Grandma!" - I, who myself so recently was photographed on my grandmother's lap. ~Liv Ullmann
A child needs a grandparent, anybody's grandparent, to grow a little more securely into an unfamiliar world. ~Charles and Ann Morse
I particularly like the last quote since it means that even if you don't have grandchildren of your own, there are children near you who need a grandparent.
