Today is Grandparents' Day - a day I only recently discovered existed...
Apparently US President Jimmy Carter signed this special day into being - and Canadians came on board!
I also only recently discovered that being a grandparent can have health benefits. I know that physically I'm more active when I hang out with my grandkids... The number on my pedometer jumps any day I spend time with them.
And ... according to "Dr Google" - studies have shown that hanging out with kids can delay dementia and extend your life.
So - whether you have kids or grandkids or not, talking to young ones and hanging out with them is apparently good for your health!
