I mean do your grandkids acknowledge you on this day?

I have always acknowledged my grandmother on Mother's day. She is a mother after all isn't she? Every year I send her and card and call her (she lives in another country) and I think that grandparents should be acknowledged because they will do anything for you and at least once a year, you should celebrate them!

Grandma's are very lucky! We have TWO days to be recognized. We are of course, mothers first, on Mothers Day, and we also have a Grandparents Day set aside just for us.
President Jimmy Carter, in 1978, proclaimed that National Grandparents Day would be celebrated every year on the first Sunday after Labor Day

Mmmm, I think it might be a thoughtful thing to remember Granny on mothers day.

Well, considering that they were, at one time, a MOM, I'd say yes. Although there IS a holiday for Grandparents as well in, I think, September. Hallmark already knows about it, I've checked. LOL
Happy Mother's Day!!

I think it is just "woman I love day" in general. I'm not even a mom but my fiance & I still celebrate Mother's Day as "if I was a mom." It's great fun. So buy your Grannie something, your aunt, mom, sister, step-mom :)

Technically, no. Since it is *mother's* day, even if a woman happens to be a grandma, she is on that day being acknowledged as a *mother*.
But who am i to judge?

I always get my baba and gigi a gift for mothers day and fathers day. Its just a nice gift, and to say you think of them as your parents too since they are always there for you. Even if it is just a card.
