"Grandma Loves You!" by Helen Foster James is a sweet book for grandmas to read to
their grandchildren. The tender rhymes and soft pastel illustrations capture
the feelings of grandmothers from the moment they first see their grandchildren.
Audrey and Antonino love it whenever LaMom reads this book to them.
They sit on her lap while fighting over who gets to turn the pages. Right now they like looking at the photos and
the snuggles they get when LaMom reads to them. But I'm sure when they're older and able to understand the text better, they
will definitely feel how special they are to their grandma.
Simple, warm and sweet, "Grandma Loves You!" is a lovely gift
for new grandmothers. In fact, I think parents can even use it to announce a
pregnancy to grandmas-to-be.
Audrey and Antonino are lucky enough to have 2 grandmas
and even a great grandpa around. My Lolo (grandfather) is already 90 years old. And
although he may sometimes forget our names, he always remembers that Audrey and
Antonino are twins. When we were in Ilocos to celebrate his 90th birthday, he
would always ask "Where's the other one? They're twins, right?" whenever he would see only one of them running around. I
find it really sweet that he's still able to remember that detail. So I have to give a special
thank you to LaMom, Mima and GG Pin (Great Grandpa)! We love you!
Happy Grandparents' Day to all the grandmas and grandpas out there!
