Grandmas are superheroes and possess a unique superpower that no one else has: They always seem to know the right thing to say and how to improve a bad situation. Do you remember how being around your Grandma used to make you feel better? You, my friend, are now that person to your own special grandchildren.
Another gift that grandmas have is knowing what to say to make any situation – no matter how good or bad – even better. Since we have this unique ability, we must use it to build up our grandkids and their confidence, which is why I have compiled this list of phrases that grandmas should tell their grandkids (and grandkids love to hear):
- “I’m so proud of you, my darling. Keep shining.”
- “No matter what, always remember that Grandma loves you very much.”
- “You are unique and special in your own way. Never forget that.”
- “Remember, even the toughest days have a sunset and a new dawn. Be patient.”
- “Grandma is always here for you, no matter what.”
- “You’re doing a great job, sweetheart. Keep going!”
- “You are braver than you think, stronger than you seem, and loved more than you know.”
- “In Grandma’s eyes, you are perfect just the way you are.”
- “Whenever you’re feeling sad, you can always come to grandma for a hug.”
- “Believe in yourself, dear. You’re capable of great things.”
- “You make grandma’s heart full with your smiles and laughter.”
- “Never be afraid to make mistakes, sweetheart. They’re part of the journey.”
- “I’m here to listen, love. You can share anything with me.”
- “Even on your toughest days, always remember, grandma believes in you.”
- “You bring so much joy into my life. I’m grateful for every moment with you.”
- “I am so lucky to have such a wonderful grandchild like you.”
- “Always be kind, gentle, and patient with yourself, my dear.”
- “My love for you is as endless as the stars in the sky.”
Do you have any phrases like this that you frequently tell your grandkids? I would love to hear them! Keep up the great work, Grandma – you make it look so easy 😉
