Grandma

You are one of a kind the strongest woman that I have had a chance to come across in my life time. When I wanted to see things my way you would tell me the truth and help me see through a brighter day. Grandma when you see something not right you have to say something about it. You just don’t sugar coat anything you say how you feel. There is a certain thing called the look and that I would get when I did wrong. I had so much fear in you I would jump back in line if I didn’t it was a whipping on my behind. I want to make you happy I don’t want your time to be a waste of time. You are the reason my college professors say I am one of a kind. I want to tell you keep your peace of mind, because my mind is never on autopilot. So know that on this grandchild you didn’t waste your time. Thank you for your hard work on my mother; you taught her how to be a good mother. Without you I would be like the rest of the world, not extraordinary. I will always love you.
