When I was just a little girl,
Grandma, she made cookies.
I watched her can things in a jar,
and make bread from homemade dough.
When I was just a little girl,
Grandpa, he worked on mowers.
He taught me all about small engines,
and to ride a horse better than Tim. (my older brother)
We went to church on Sunday.
When I was just a young girl,
Grandma, she made dresses.
I watched her hem and darn,
and perform real, tree magic! (grafting)
When I was just a young girl,
Grandpa worked on tractors.
He taught me all about bugs,
and to look for snakes in the garden.
We went to church on Sunday.
When I had come of age,
Grandma, she made quilts.
I watched her struggle all the time,
but I learned, what living was about.
When I had come of age,
Grandpa had gone home.
He went to be with Jesus,
yet I know, we are not alone.
We still go to church on Sunday.
