She's the one who taught me to crochet, even though I've long forgotten. She's the one who taught me to embroider, That I still do, and I've kept the piece of material with my first tentative stitches. She's the one who taught me to sew on her treadle machine, though I now use an electric. Together we shucked corn and removed it from the cob with that funny little contraption. She let me sleep on the downstairs couch, when I was afraid to sleep upstairs alone. She let me bring my friends with me on those hot summer days to stay and play. She let us knock on all the walls upstairs to find the secret passages, even though she knew there weren't any, because I had read too many Nancy Drew novels. She's also the woman who remembered a young girls words about a "beautiful quilt" , and 20 years later presented it to her as a wedding gift. There are so many things to remember and too little time to write, this is only a fraction of what my grandmother means to me. I love you very much grandma, you mean the world to me.

I want to leave my grandkids each a box of memories from our time together, something for them to hold onto and treasure too. Such a sweet story, thanks for sharing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11747268325270933661noreply@blogger.com
