my favorite memory of my grandma was when there was a squirrel on the birdfeeder and she insisted it was some type of small dog.
"no, grandma, that's a squirrel.."
"noo, that doesn't look like any squirrel i've ever seen.. he has a long beak like a dog."
Now I will share my favorite memory with my Gram :)
Whenever my sister or I were sick and needed to stay home from school my Mom would drop us off over at Gram's house. She lived alone in a small one bedroom apartment in a not so great area of town, but I LOVED going over there. We would eat apples and oranges and cookies, watch soap operas (she would always change the channel if a love scene started up :) do puzzles, color, and play cards. I would fake sick sometimes just so I could go hang out with Gram during the day rather than go to school. I am sure my Mom would have just taken me over there if I said "hey Mom, I wanna go hang out with Gram" but it was much more fun to be sneaky about it!! I miss her and think about her everyday...you were the best Gram!
