That SIL sounds mean spirited, Janet! No matter what, her girls were turned against their Grandmother, a relationship that is so important. My mother did that until my father's mom moved into our apartment building. I found out that she was so cool! I was lucky to have gotten the chance to be loved by her.

Marilyn, we used last names for our grandparents when we were kids too. We had Grandma Bloom and Grandpa Bloom. My mother's mom was called Bubby though, the Jewish word for grandmother. So, they became Bubby and Grandpa Jake.

I think some people choose what they want to be called, and then go with what the grandchildren can actually pronounce. Brandon used to call me "Jooey" when he was little. He heard people call me Judy, and I guess he liked that word.

Whatever you are called, it becomes one of your favorite words!!!
