Grandparents Day

Famous quotes containing the words grandparents and/or day:

    “Another appealing aspect to having grandparents is that they do help, to give [your child] a sense of continuity—of his place in the world and in the generations.

Even a very young child can begin to feel a sense of rootedness and history.”

    “This has been illustrated copiously each day with photographs taken by the author, reproduced by means of cuts such as only French newspaper-engravers can make, presumably etched on pieces of bread.”
