Connecting WithGrandkids

Maintaining regular contact isthe key to developing enduringbonds. This could mean makingweekly visits or phone calls, orsending “just because” cards bymail. With technology such asemail, text messaging, videocalls and social media websites,it’s even easier to stay in touch.

You’ve probably heard thesaying, “They may forget whatyou said, but they will neverforget how you made them feel.”What grandchildren will valuemost from you is love andsupport. Showing interest intheir lives, offering a listeningear, and saying “I love you” areall simple yet shining ways ofbeing a great grandparent.

Ms. Jean D. moved in toCornerstone back in 2017 andshe is totally happy andenjoying the great camaraderieamong other residents and ofcourse, not missing a dayof Bingo!

Thankful for her family, sixgrandchildren and four great-grandkids are truly a blessingand memories to last forever.
