Grandparents Day, September 13, is, a great day to celebrate having grandparents, or being one. Everyone has special memories of their nana or baba (or whatever special name they are dubbed), whether they shared time, family stories, or a well-worn recipe. And the lucky grandparents experience the thrill of seeing life continue through their grandkids.
Here are a collection of GUIDEPOSTS stories, and stories from our new partners, Grandparents.com, all about the joys of grandparenting.

Here are some funny and inspiring glimpses being passed around on the Web of how some children see their grandparents. They're sure to make anyone smile, young or old.

-----
• She was in the bathroom, putting on her makeup, under the watchful eyes of her young granddaughter, as she'd done many times before. After she applied her lipstick and started to leave, the little one said,"But Gramma, you forgot to kiss the toilet paper good-bye!" I will probably never put lipstick on again without thinking about kissing the toilet paper good-bye...
• My young grandson called the other day to wish me Happy Birthday. He asked me how old I was, and I told him, "62." My grandson was quiet for a moment, and then he asked, "Did you start at 1?"
• After putting her grandchildren to bed, a grandmother changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and proceeded to wash her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more rambunctious, her patience grew thin. Finally, she threw a towel around her head and stormed into their room, putting them back to bed with stern warnings. As she left the room, she heard the three-year-old say with trembling voice; "Who was that?"
• A grandmother was telling her little granddaughter what her own childhood was like: "We used to skate outside on a pond. I had a swing made from a tire; it hung from a tree in our front yard. We rode our pony. We picked wild raspberries in the woods." The little girl was wide-eyed, taking this all in. At last she said, "I sure wish I'd got to know you sooner!"
• My grandson was visiting one day when he asked, "Grandma, do you know how you and God are alike?" I mentally polished my halo and I said, "No, how are we alike?" "You're both old," he replied.
• A little girl was diligently pounding away on her grandfather's word processor. She told him she was writing a story. "What's it about?"
he asked. "I don't know," she replied. "I can't read."
• I didn't know if my granddaughter had learned her colors yet, so I decided to test her. I would point out something and ask what color it was. She would tell me and was always correct. It was fun for me, so I continued. At last, she headed for the door, saying, "Grandma, I think you should try to figure out some of these, yourself!"
Hope you have grandparent to share the day with. Enjoy
