What are the bullet points of a great relationship with your loved ones? Meemaw knows the answer.

The already famous Big Bang Theory spin-off, Young Sheldon, gives us a proper background for many things from the original show.

Thus we have the opportunity to experience the early steps of Sheldon's interactions with every human in his life before meeting the "gang" in the future.

And frankly, that's very helpful, so at least now we know that the genius boy was really tested as a child and is not crazy…

Young Sheldon allowed fans to witness the beginning and strengthening of the great Sheldon-Meemaw relationship. And now the Big Bang Theory fans can truly understand Sheldon's attitude when it comes to her and see why adult Sheldon misses his grandma so much.

In the spin-off, Meemaw, played by Annie Potts, is portrayed as a tough but still caring and fair grandma, who is always on Sheldon's side and protects him no matter what.

Young Sheldon gives us a lot of sweet moments of this duo, so we could truly see her impact on his future life.

"He had a very close relationship with his grandma and is evidenced in many scenes and story lines in Young Sheldon. She always understood and made exceptions for him. She also drove him on the long trip to his college class and waited.

She even introduced him to his first video game and played the quest with him, he even says during narration that he's fought so many quests since but nothing will compare to that first quest with [Meemaw]," Reddit user Ryan2491 said.

This makes us reconsider a particularly emotional moment in season 8 of The Big Bang Theory, when Amy surprises her boyfriend with an unexpected, but clearly unforgettable Christmas gift.

She goes out of her way to bake his favorite Meemaw's special Christmas cookies.

And after watching Young Sheldon and realizing that the bond between Sheldon and his dearest Meemaw is much stronger than they thought, fans are seeing the drama of this scene in a different light.

We're not crying, you are.
