A granddaughter has come to stay —
A tiny miracle, so sweet!

And luck walk with her where she goes!

What to give for a new granddaughter

A delicate bouquet of pink roses, a symbol of a baby girl, makes a lovely gift for grandma, along with a card holding the baby’s first photo. A soft toy can become the granddaughter’s first friend. For the new mother, give flowers once she’s home, choosing bouquets without a strong scent.
