This past week, the b5media Lifestyles Channel paid a tribute to grandparents, in recognition of Grandparents Day.
The b5media Lifestyles Channel pays tribute to their own grandparents with memories, recipes and values handed down from generation to generation, said Channel Editor Gayla McCord.
Here at One Book Two Book I reminisce about the reading heritage from my grandparents. My mom’s father also was a writer, so he must have influenced me in this area, too. It’s enjoyable to browse through his collection of writings and pass them along to children and grandchildren.
At Quilting and Patchwork, where I also blog, I wrote a tribute to my grandmother for my quilting heritage and for introducing me to this art. This early influence later led me to establish a quilting business in my home and venture into writing about quilts and quilters.
What memories do you have about your grandparents and the heritage they’ve given you. Since I’m a grandparent myself, I hope I’m passing on to my grandchildren…memories, values, and stories of their heritage.
You’ll also enjoy visiting the Lifestyles post and learning how grandparents influenced the lives of the other bloggers.
