The Best Grandma in the World - Howard Books
Introduction
Being a grandmother is one of the greatest joys imaginable in life. But it takes more than genetics to become that truly Special Someone:a grandma. It takes wisdom, encouragement, forgiveness, comfort—and most of all, unconditional love.
The Best Grandma in the Worldcelebrates the joy of grandmas everywhere, but most especially, it honors you, the unique and special grandma in my own heart. I hope this book inspires, encourages, and shows my appreciation to you, Grandma. I’m so honored and thankful that God has placed you in my life.
Grandma, you’re the best!
You’re the
Best
Grandma
in the World Because…
You Take Time
to Listen.
If nothing is going well,
call your grandmother.
ITALIANPROVERB
10God has surely listened and heard my voice in prayer.
PSALM66:19
You could probably listen to your grandchildren for hours on end and not wish for them to stop talking to you. The particular ways in which they phrase things and the fact that they’re sharing their hearts with you make each moment precious, and you hang on every word. A phone call from a grandchild, no matter what time of day, is never a disturbance, but rather a welcome blessing.
We know that God is also available and willing to listen to us at any time, yet we sometimes need to be reminded of how much pleasure He takes in these conversations. Just as one of your grandchildren climbing up in your lap to tell you about his day makes you feel loved and valuable, your prayers express to God your love for and trust in Him. So take some time today to sit in your Father’s lap and share with Him your hopes, dreams, cares—anything that’s on your mind. He loves spending time with His children.
A Letter to My Grandma
Dear Grandma,
You have always been there for me with a listening ear and an open heart. You know just what to say to make me feel better. Sometimes you share a story with me about your life, and other times, you have a wise word of advice or encouragement. You’re also sensitive to when I just need someone to listen as I work things out on my own. You are more than a family member—you are my friend in whom I know I can always confide.
Thank you, Grandma, for your willingness to listen and your caring, gentle way. I want to follow in your footsteps so I may be a friend and confidante to those I love.
Love,
Your Grandchild
Grandma
I really feel quite special
That God has chosen you.
To be a person in my life
Who knows me through and through.
The time that we spend talking
I’ve always felt you heard…
You’ve been so good at listening
To each and every word.
And even things I didn’t share,
You somehow heard them too.
I think this is a special gift
That God has given you.
So I just want to thank you
For being there for me.
And showing me acceptance
And love so totally.

When I was five years old, I loved kindergarten, most of the time. But one day when it was raining, my grandma picked me up and my face must have looked like the drizzle falling all around us.
What’s the matter, baby?
Grandma asked me as I climbed into the
