Rocking It Grand

What does it take to be a game-changing grandma?

If you’re a grandma, you have the potential to be a real game-changer in your grandchildren’s lives, but that won’t happen accidentally.

Authors Chrys Howard and Shellie Rushing Tomlinson know this from experience-they’re seasoned grandmas with a combined total of twenty grandchildren. With their signature Southern humor and honest, insightful family stories, they challenge all grandmas (including themselves) to mentor their "grands" in a godly way.

Stepping into such an important role can bring doubts and worries, but Shellie and Chyrs’s encouragement and ideas will empower grandmas to pass on an "inheritance" of positive values, attitudes, and character traits to your "children’s children," as Proverbs 13:22 reminds us to do. Being a game-changer means recognizing some basic truths about family life, that "listening is the secret to being heard" and "little ones understand more than we think." It also means knowing how to deal wisely with possible problems:

• Divorce and blended families
• Boundaries between grandmas and parents
• Making life revolve around grandkids

Filled with inspirational quotes, Scriptures, and actions steps, Rocking It Grand will help you rock your grandma years with purpose. And did we mention that the book includes twenty family cookie recipes? Because some days just call for a good cookie from Grandma!
