Need help with wording - Added quotes I found if you need some for Mother's Day

I got those stepping stones to do for my mom and MIL for mother's day. I'm going to do DSs handprints with his name and the year, but I'm not sure what else to write.
To grandma, Love...?
I love you Grandma...?
My mom is single and on the other side it's MIL and FIL, so should I make the one to my mom say "Grandma" and the one to MIL be more generic so they put it out and it's not like FIL was left out if I just say "I love you" or something?
Suggestions would be appreciated cause I"m not really happy with the above and I"m looking for something cute or different.

How about something along the lines of "with each step in my life, you'll be there by my side, holding my hand" or somethign to do with feet & hands?

That's really cute, but I don't think there's any way I could fit all that on there. But maybe one hand and one foot and some kind of abbreviated version of that...

Re: Need help with wording

I really love this idea and may have to steal it...hope you dont mind!!!

i was thinking something like
"Love you bunches"
"I Love you always"
"Love and big hugs"

could use any of them with the word grandma or without

just a few ideas

Re: Need help with wording

I found a few quotes if anyone is looking for their own crafts and cards:

The reason grandchildren and grandparents get along so well is that they have a common enemy. ~Sam Levenson


Grandmas are moms with lots of frosting. ~Author Unknown


What a bargain grandchildren are! I give them my loose change, and they give me a million dollars' worth of pleasure. ~Gene Perret

A grandmother is a babysitter who watches the kids instead of the television. ~Author Unknown


What children need most are the essentials that grandparents provide in abundance. They give unconditional love, kindness, patience, humor, comfort, lessons in life. And, most importantly, cookies. ~Rudolph Giuliani

There's no place like home except Grandma's. ~Author Unknown

Grandmas never run out of hugs or cookies. ~Author Unknown


Grandmas hold our tiny hands for just a little while, but our hearts forever. ~Author Unknown

I don't intentionally spoil my grandkids. It's just that correcting them often takes more energy than I have left. ~Gene Perret


The best baby-sitters, of course, are the baby's grandparents. You feel completely comfortable entrusting your baby to them for long periods, which is why most grandparents flee to Florida. ~Dave Barry

Grandmother - a wonderful mother with lots of practice. ~Author Unknown


On the seventh day God rested. His grandchildren must have been out of town. ~Gene Perret

If your baby is "beautiful and perfect, never cries or fusses, sleeps on schedule and burps on demand, an angel all the time," you're the grandma. ~Teresa Bloomingdale

A garden of Love grows in a Grandmother's heart. ~Author Unknown

Grandparents are similar to a piece of string - handy to have around and easily wrapped around the fingers of their grandchildren. ~Author Unknown

No cowboy was ever faster on the draw than a grandparent pulling a baby picture out of a wallet. ~Author Unknown

A grandmother pretends she doesn't know who you are on Halloween. ~Erma Bombeck


My grandchild has taught me what true love means. It means watching Scooby-Doo cartoons while the basketball game is on another channel. ~Gene Perret


My granddaughter came to spend a few weeks with me, and I decided to teach her to sew. After I had gone through a lengthy explanation of how to thread the machine, she stepped back, put her hands on her hips, and said in disbelief, "You mean you can do all that, but you can't play my Game Boy?" ~Author Unknown

“Grandmothers are the people who take delight in hearing babies breathing into the telephone.” ~ Author: unknown
