2005 Grandparents Day E-newsletter
02 Sep 2005
|
Dear Friend,Wisdom of the ages, kind smiling eyes, a bottomless treasure trove of stories, a patient listening ear, inquisitive ways, and a warm embrace. These are what one can expect from a grandparent. They have been there, done that ... they know what's really important in life. They know that life is precious, and each moment a gift not to be wasted. There is so much we can learn from our lolos and lolas. Let's be thankful for them and express our love and appreciation on their special day.
We invite you to share the wonderful greetings you have for your lolos and lolas! At every Papemelroti branch, you can post your messages as part of the store decoration for everyone to see!
Happy Grandparents Day! - September 11, 2005

The Grandparent Connection Website has a mission: it's to promote the connection between the older and younger generations of family through communication and common ground. Since 2003, this e-newsletter has articles written by kids to their grandfolks to foster deeper understanding between the generations. The site even has suggestions on fun activities grandparents and kids can do together (try the ice cream making session!).
