Grandma

Beth Gibbons

They think I'm wonderful
They think I'm grand
They are full of wonder
They love to hold my hand.

We laugh and play together
We sing and dance too
I will stay forever young
As long as I'm with you.

New one expected
He will be special in blue
Soon I will be "GREAT!"

Grandma and Great Grandma too!
