Grandparents are Great

Since tomorrow is National Grandparents Day, I thought I would show you a "great" gift I made for my mom a couple of years ago.


I was inspired by this book(by Gaby Goldsack) I read to our son.


This is my version. I got a board book at the second hand store to alter.

Inside:

Our family pictures.


My mom & me. In the pocket on the right, I wrote a note to her telling her why she is a "great" grandma to our kids.


In the pages following I had each of the kids, on their page, write why they love her.

I know this is special to her because she displays it in her living room on the fireplace mantle.

Aren't GrandParents Great????
