Grandma Sandy - and it suits me fine. Too many living grandparents to all be called Grandma and Grandpa

When my youngest sister was very small, she couldn't say Jo she said Gi...it turned into GG...and my GrandBoy calls me GG or GiGi if you like my SIL says it's for gringo granny, but I will tell you it's for Grateful Grandma! As my DD was 36 when she had him, and we thought she would never have children! Lol. He is a treasure God is GREAT!

I wish they would come up with something better...they all sound so old...I am not one yet...but it could happen anytime not that my kids want to be parents anytime soon. Very sadly they have seen many of their friends get married, have kids and divorce. I have a feeling that is why they hold off having children.

I have 18 GC and 5 and 6 GGC are due this next year. Some are step GC and some are bio GC. Most of the GC call me Granny Dee. But, the one who lived with us for 11 years chose to call me Nanny. New Step GC chose to call me Nanny Donna. As I was the Newbie, it was their choice. They had a Nanny and wanted to call me Nanny Donna. They all know what to call me when it comes to time for their Birthday/ LOL

She was given this name because she has on old-fashioned tv with tubes, and when she turns it off it makes the sound of 'poo poo poo'.

I'm glad to be the one with the car.

This is too funny. My daughter's mother-in-law and I have the same first name so we could not be Grandma Cheryl. So when my grandson (he was the first) started referring to Grandma, Kim would ask, "which Grandma - Grandma with the Gator Van or Papa Richard's Grandma?" So, you guessed it, we became "Gator Van" (me) and Papa Richard's Grandma (her). I loved my name and she disliked hers. She kept saying I am not Richard's grandma (Richard being her husband). Of course, we all laughed at her, but you should have seen the looks when I had Shane with me in the stores and he called me Gator Van. It sounded like Grandma to me and I was so used to it that it surprised me when people asked what he had called me. Now he is 23 and he calls me Grandma. The rest call me G-Ma.
