Grandmas:

I was out walking with my Grandson.  He picked up something off of the ground and started to put it in his mouth.  I took the item away from him and I asked him not to do that. 'Why' my Grandson asked.


"Because it's been on the ground; you don't know where it's been, it's dirty, and probably has germs," I replied.

At this point, my Grandson looked at me with total admiration and asked, "Grandma, how do you know all this stuff??  You are so smart."


I was thinking quickly and said to him, "all Grandmas know stuff.  It's on the Grandma Test.  You have to know it, or they don't let you be a Grandma."


We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but he was evidently pondering this new information.

"Oh....I get it! He beamed, so if you don't pass the test you have to be the Grandpa".


'Exactly,' I replied with a big smile on my face.
