🎉👵👴 Happy National Grandparents Day! 👴👵🎉

"Grandparents are a little bit parent, a little bit teacher, and a whole lot of best friend." 💜

From funny stories to warm hugs (and maybe sneaking in a cookie or two 🍪, in our case, a few goodies from the homegrown summer-garden), grandparents make life brighter for everyone.

Today’s the perfect excuse to:
✨ Call your grandparents 📞
✨ Stop by for a visit 🚗
✨ Or share a laugh together 😂

Here’s a sweet snap of my dad with the kids — proof that love, wisdom, and a little silliness span every generation.

💌 Go ahead… check in on your grandparents today. They’ll love it (and so will you!).
