Grandma's are here for a good time, not a long time and we want to enjoy them while they last. Here are some reasons why your grandma should be your best friend.

1. She spoils you with love and lots of cookies.

Grandmas make the best cookies, regardless of flavor.

2. She never fails to make her house feel like home.

Sometimes if your lucky, you even get your own room.

3. She takes you on some pretty bomb vacations.

Whether it’s the next town over or somewhere tropical, she spoils you.

4. She's been with you since birth so she basically knows everything about you.

All of your past relationships, all of your friends, your daily routine, she knows it all.

5. She keeps your secrets from your parents.

She knows some things that you’ll keep from them for your entire life.

6. She's pretty much your human diary.

Tell her everything, she won’t judge. Also, she gives some pretty good advice based on her life experiences.

7. Did I mention that she bakes a lot of cookies?

Snickerdoodles, chocolate chips, sugar, no bakes...

8. She listens to you more than she listens to anyone else.

She would drop everything just to hear your voice.

9. She gives you a little more love than she ever gave her own kids.

Grandkids are truly spoiled!

10. In her eyes, you can never fail, no matter what.

Even if you win last place in your favorite sport, you won first place in her eyes.

11. She has the biggest knowledge of natural healing remedies for when you get hurt.

Don’t even get me started on the jello/Sore-throat trick or the “spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.”

12. She has seen you naked as a baby so she knows you inside and out.

She has changed your diapers and most likely kissed you all over the place so know that she probably knows where all of your birthmarks and scars are.

13. She makes an effort to introduce herself as "grandma" to your friends.

Mi abuela es tú abuela. = “My grandma is your grandma.”

14. She never thinks that you are too old for sleepovers at her house.

She definitely knows how to party!

15. ^ Where she makes cookies

AH YAY COOKIESSSS!!!!!

16. She's down for crazy adventures because she savors your youth.

You may think that she is being “embarrassing” or “uncool” by going to the movies with you but someday you’ll look back on those days and smile.

17. She loves you more than anyone in the world so cherish her at all costs.

No one lives forever, spend all the time that you can with her!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
