Note from GranGran: Just in case you haven't realized it by now -- I think
grandkids are pretty great to have around!
I especially love the treats, treasures and surprises that Jena makes for me.
I received this story from an eMail friend and thought it was adorable!
a letter from a 3rd grader
A Grandmother is a lady who has no children of her own. She likes other
people's little girls and boys. A Grandfather is a man Grandma.
He goes for walks with boys and they talk about fishing and stuff like
that.
Grandmothers don't have to do anything except to be there. They are so
old they shouldn't play hard or run. It is enough if they drive us to
the market where the pretend horse is, and have lots of dimes ready. Or
if they take us for walks, they should slow down past things like pretty
leaves and caterpillars. They should never say "hurry up."
Usually, Grandmothers are fat, but not too fat to tie your shoes. They
wear glasses and funny
underwear. They can take their teeth and gums off.
Grandmothers don't
have to be smart, only answer questions like "Why isn't God married?"
and "Why do dogs chase cats?"
Grandmothers don't talk baby talk like mothers do, because it is hard to
understand. When they read to us, they don't skip or mind if it is the
same story over again.
Everyone should try to have a Grandmother, especially if they don't have
a TV, because they are the only grown ups who have time.
