IF YOU HAVE GRANDPARENTS

[1 min read]

If you have grandparents...

There may not be a next time,
Right now may be all you have.
Spend quality time with them,
Lavish love, attention and care on them.
Spend that loose cash on them.

If you have grandparents...



Ask what they like and get it for them,
When you're back from work, tell them about your day, however tired you are.
Ask them about theirs,
Ask what it was like for them growing up,
Ask them to tell you about their parents and siblings.

If you have grandparents...

Never belittle their opinions.
Never think they're old-fashioned and think nothing of their inputs.
Never enforce your ideas on them.
Never do things they want done in a certain style another way for them, without asking first.
They may be hurt by these things, but won't say a word.

If you have grandparents...

Take them out on dates,
Let them into your life,
Sleep beside them on their beds,
Listen to the radio with them,
Read them stories.
Listen to their stories, regardless of how many times you've heard it before.

If you have grandparents...

Stop being on your phone when you are with them.
Don't invite them to come spend time with you, then act like you can't wait for them to leave.
One day, you will be like them and want all of these things.
Do it for them, now.

If you have grandparents,

They won't always be with you.
