What Are Grandmas Known For?
The best thing about these funny grandma quotes and jokes is that they are based on reality. Grannies are loving, kind, and full of enthusiasm for their grandkids. Now that they’ve passed motherhood, they can skip diaper duty and discipline to spoil their grandchildren. Here are a few of the things that all meemaws do that make them incredibly special:
They Won’t Let You Go Hungry
Like many of these one-liner grandma jokes, grannies love cooking and feeding their grandkids. Whether it’s pies, bakes, desserts, or a four-course meal, every grandma has signature dishes that encompass all her love.
They’ll Stitch up a Storm
Almost every grandma knows how to stitch. If you’ve got a sweater from grandma, consider yourself extremely lucky and wear it proudly.
