When Hillary Clinton became a grandmother, it transformed her – not just because of this "new wonderful child," as she says in a pair of videos just in time for Mother's Day, but because she got to watch daughter Chelsea Clinton transform into a mom, too.

"Watching Chelsea mother [granddaughter] Charlotte is just the greatest joy," Hillary, 68, said in one video, Chelsea at her side.

"And I also occasionally feel a little bit happy that I kind of see something coming back that I maybe did or said," Hillary said.

For Charlotte's future, Chelsea, 36, said she wishes "the same gift of imagination and kind of sense of possibility that my mom gave me."

"It's hard though, I will say, when you are a mother for the first time," Hillary chimed in.

She shared this story: When Chelsea was very small, and "crying and crying all night," Hillary said she "couldn't figure out what to do." ..............

They can't help themselves. Everything from Motherhood, wife, grandmother has to be smeared, degraded and demeaned in any way possible. They call her a liar, yet they are the ones posting lies about her as proof she is lying. There used to be a day when people here would be outraged by the right wing lies and pass on the truth. Those days are gone. Now they link to them and spread them.

Thank you!
Hillary is a mom, and a grandmom and obviously enjoys those roles and the resulting relationships she has cultivated through her involvement and love.
