No other woman in your life will quite compare to your grandma. She’s the ultimate friend, and she always has the best advice to offer you. No girlfriend, best friend, aunt, niece or cousin will ever outdo your grandma.
Many grandmas can cook, even if they don’t do so anymore. They somehow know the recipes to every dish on earth, and they can tell you what to substitute for the most random of ingredients.
Your grandma can somehow make a seemingly boring salad into a five-star dish. Even her scrambled eggs are incredible.
Grandmas love everything and everyone. She will love almost every significant other you bring home, even if he or she is absolutely unfit for you.
She will try to love him or her as much as you do, even if she lovingly says, “I told you so” when you two break up.
Grandmas have made it too far in life to give up on anything. My grandma can barely drive, and we still can’t get her to let go of her car.
She teaches us that we shouldn’t subject ourselves to or listen to anyone else's ideas about our lives. We should do whatever we please until the day we die.
Grandmas have been around the block a few times. They’ve seen it all. They are the best people to seek relationship advice from because they completely get it.
Your grandma will also want to punch out the person who treats you poorly, but she won’t tell anyone else about your relationship problems. Your secrets are her secrets.
Whether it's a house mess or a life mess, grandmas know best. Your grandma knows how to take a red wine stain out of a white shirt, and she'll guide you through cleaning up your credit card debt.
She will be disappointed but not at all judgmental. She'll let you learn from your mistakes and become a better person because of them.
Grandmas have reached a point in their lives where they don't take life too seriously. Your grandma will laugh at all of your jokes and will teach you how to not sweat the small stuff.
When you’re stressed out, she teaches you the value of laughter.
My grandma couldn’t care less about what she says to people because she has too much fun joking around.
Your grandma has fun with her conversations (mainly because she can’t hear most of them). She will remind you that life is too short to censor yourself and your beliefs.
