Proud of her granddaughter, Tina Knowles did not fail to shower her with praise. “You can dance, play basketball, volleyball, paint, draw, sculpt, write poems, songs, create, play the piano… And so on. There’s nothing you can’t do (…) I mightn’t ask for a better granddaughter, Blue Ivy Carter. I mightn’t be more blessed, grateful and in love with another human. You really bring me a lot of joy.”
