Grandparents are fantastic. They are our historical memory, a bridge between generations, and are capable of teaching us knowledge that otherwise would be lost.

But above all they have a sweetness that is almost child-like that warms the heart. Unfortunately, it is increasingly rare that today's families, mononuclear for the most part, cohabit with grandparents as was the rule until some years ago.
