SUBMIT YOUR ESSAY/PHOTOS ON GRANDPARENTS THAT INSPIRE YOU OR ENRICH YOUR LIFE! With Grandparents Day coming up on Sept. 7th, wed like to take a moment to celebrate the incredible contributions grandparents have made in our lives. Grandparents are a vital part of our society and their wisdom and encouragement can do wonders for children of all ages. From what weve seen, grandparents arent ready for the sidelines. They want to be active, engaged, involved and appreciated. With all this in mind, were asking for your help -- in two different ways -- as we seek to honor grandparents and the importance of the traditional grandparenting role. 1. We want to know how your own grandparents enriched your lives in 250 words or less. We want to know how they inspired you and what made them so special. We want to know about that one memory of them that never fades. And with those words, we want you to email us your favorite photo of your grandparent. 2. For those of you who ARE grandparents, we want to know what you most like to do with your grandchild and what lesson you hope to impart on him or her -- again, in 250 words or less. And we want to see those cute photos of your adorable grandchildren. During the week of Grandparents Day, well publish our favorite submissions and photos -- including a massive display of your photos on Sept. 7th. What a wonderful keepsake and a great way for you -- and for us -- to celebrate grandparents and grandchildren. Please email photos and submissions to grandparents@huffingtonpost -- no later than Friday, Sept. 5 at 5 p.m. eastern. Thanks for your help!
