Some even urged the grandson to save the screenshot of the Google Maps image in case Google updates its policy and replaces the image with a more recent one. He assured them that he already had a screenshot of his grandmother's picture.

In another story about a grandma-grandson relationship, a grandmother meets her grandson for the first time and she can not hold back her joy. The precious moment was captured on a TikTok video. She is seen entering the house and is stunned to see her grandchild lying on the sofa. She says, "Oh God, Oh my God" and then quickly goes to wash her hand. Aware of the importance of being hygienic around the baby, she washes her hand properly even before approaching the baby. Then she runs to him and excitedly says, "Oh God, Noah! Hiii!" Then she holds his hands and says, "Oh Noah! No cries. It's nanna." Meanwhile, the song, "Happiest Year" by Jaymes Young is playing in the background. The video was recorded by the elderly woman's daughter @courtneyjones._. It is captioned, "I’m not crying, you are😢 so wholesome." She explained in the comment why her mother was meeting the child for the first time. She wrote, "She couldn’t be there for the birth, then 5 weeks in NICU and we said no visitors for 2 weeks. So she waited just short of 2 months!" The video went viral with more than 14.9 million views.
