I want to leave my house to my grandson but give my daughter the right to live there as long as she lives. What kind of wording is needed in my will in WA State?

I want to leave my house to my grandson but allow his mom (my daughter) to live there through the end of her life. How do I word this in my will? The three of us have always lived together; my wife died recently.

You would leave the house to your grandson while granting your daughter a life estate in the property.
