Your grandma sounds amazing. My grandma told me to always wear pretty lingerie, just in case I get knocked down, the doctors wouldn't find me in ugly and torn panty and bra. :) LOL. Oh and she instilled fear in me. If I didn't go to church every Sunday, the devils would come in chains for me. That was why she had to bribe me with a cake before we went to church. :) Brandygirls last blog post..<a href="http://ttcwithendo.blogspot.com/2008/09/if-mind-keeps-thinking-youve-had-enough.html" rel="nofollow">If the mind keeps thinking you've had enough, but the heart keeps telling you don't give up</a> What a lovely picture!

Not everyone has this. I did not. My grandparents on my mothers side of the family were not here for me to know and my grandparents on my fathers side were not kid friendly. Enjoy your Gram while you can. Call her and learn all that you can. I can only hope that all my grandchildren feel this way about me. She has over come a lot in her life. She is a strong lady.

It gave me goosebumps and misty eyes at the same time. I definitely think you should do all you can to capture your Grandma's life story. I understand your sense of urgency and feel the exact same way with my remaining Grandparents. My Grandma taught me faith, love of strangers, humor in conflict and hospitality. My Grandfather taught me the joy of hard work, how to manage money and the importance of not withholding knowledge/intelligence.
