If you're like us, you are a baby boomer grandma...and we
think that sets us apart from any other grandma in history!
We were part of women's lib, we saw the Beatles make their
first appearance in America, we were in awe as we watched
Neil Armstrong take the "first giant step for mankind," and
some of us even attended Woodstock. We raised our children
with the help of Dr. Spock perhaps or Dear Abby, but most
often we did it by the seat of our pants! We realized we could
do anything we wanted to do, with a mixture of positive and
negative affects on our family. We tried to instill new values
in our sons and daughters and now we have the opportunity
to help shape a new generation.

I'm Kathy -- better known now as Grandma. I was the
first to become a grandma (at age 48) and I have one
granddaughter, Sarah (age 10),
and one grandson, Adam (age 8).
Sarah is about to finish 5th
grade and knows most everything worth knowing, which
she is quick to point out to her brother. Adam, in his
8-year-old boy wisdom, is
unimpressed and retaliates by calling her a name such
as "stinky butt" or "hose nose," which reduces her to
tears....tied score, and five minutes later they're
playing and loving each other. THIS IS SO MUCH FUN!

I'm Elizabeth
-- best known as Nana. I earned my grandma status after
Kathy, but I have her beat in the numbers department
with one grandson, Caleb (age 1),
four granddaughters...Faith
(age 8), Megan (age 6),
Courtney (age 3)
and Caitlin (born 3/3).
My grandchildren keep us hopping
-- and LAUGHING! I love to answer my phone and hear
a little voice say "Hi, Nana...I'm having a good day.
What are you doing?" The girls remind me so much of
my daughters when they were young, except I am not worried
about doing everything wrong now! For me, it doesn't
get any better than this! |

We have been best friends for many
years and shared a lot of life experiences. When we get together
now, most of our time is filled sharing stories about our
grandkids (we wonder what we talked about before they entered
our lives). You probably guessed that we LOVE being
groovy grandmas! BananaNana is a true labor of love for us.
And, we look forward to reading about your experiences through
the stories, hints and tips you share! Thank you for letting
us be a part of your family.
