A few weeks ago, Steve and I attended the Legacy Grandparenting Summit hosted by Shades Mountain Baptist Church. Several hundred fellow grandparents gathered with us in person while another 5000 watched online. It was a wonderful event, full of great music, excellent presentations, good food, interesting vendors, and gracious hosts. I would highly recommend this to all of grandparents who might be reading.
During the day, we heard speakers and visited display tables with books, websites, podcasts, and more designed to help grandparents be very intentional in their efforts to invest meaningfully in the lives of their grandchildren. I thought it might be helpful to use today's post to list some of these for you to check out for yourself.
