Re: Grandma Alternatives?

Guess I went to the traditional route as a child...I just called my grandparents Grandma & Grandpa.

Re: Grandma Alternatives?

What about seeing what the kids call them when they are old enough to talk? My daughter named my mom Gay-Gay, and while it is so silly, it has stuck and that's what we call her now. Maybe when she's older we'll switch back to Grandma.
