Gloria Carter, aka Mama Carter, aka Jay-Z‘s mom, gave Us Weekly some rare info about her granddaughter Blue Ivy this weekend while at a Shawn Carter Foundation event at her son’s 40/40 Club in NYC.

Specifically, she shed some light on what Jay is like as a dad, and what his relationship is like with the adorably perfect 16-month-old.

“It warms my heart to see how he interacts with his daughter…And when she says, ‘Papa,’ he just melts. He’s a great dad…The amazing thing about being a grandmother is that you go get the kids, but when you’re tired, you can take them home!” she said with a laugh.

And as for Blue Ivy’s progress as the most amazing toddler on the planet?

“She’s very very smart.”

Well, of course she is… she’s a pinch of Hov, a whole glass of B.

Hov + BIC = 🙂 so here are 17 photos [including the one above] of Jay-Z and BIC being cute together.

Soooo precious!

They dance…

He checks to see if she needs to be changed [at least that’s what I think he’s doing?]

Yeah, I think so.

He lets her play in Beyonce’s hair.

And he plays in her hair.

And smiles at her, just because.

And takes photos of her playing Uno on her first birthday 🙂

And he takes her on private helicopter rides…

Checks to make sure she’s OK…

We think she’s OK.

He kisses her in Paris [even though we can’t see her.]

And also takes her to lunch in Paris [where we can finally see her.]

Beyonce even knows it’s cute.

Soooooo cute
