We didn't see her often during the holidays because we lived far away, but our visits were special and filled with love. I'm an only child and my parents are both with the Lord now, so there isn't anyone on this earth that I can talk about Grandma with! Hubby and I are both only children, and we have 3 girls and so far we have 5 granddaughters and 1 grandson between ages 2 and 7, and another baby on the way. We're so glad that our girls will have each other to discuss their growing up years with, and the grandkids love being together and we just adore watching them play. You might be around my age, Brenda, I had the same haircut as you did when I was about that age! My Grandma wasn't even my "real" Grandma and my mom never told me that - I had to figure it out myself that Grandma and Grandpa's last name was different from my mom's maiden name. Turns out that my mom was orphaned at age 6 and my G&G were really her aunt and uncle! What a special heart and love they had to take in a child during the depression when money was so tight. I'm so glad they did. My Grandma would make a couple main dishes and tons of sides, and at least 3 homemade desserts, and she would say, "Well, I hope we have everything here, but if we don't, just holler and we'll hunt it up!" <br /><br />I appreciate Glenda (or was it another member?) from our Christian Journaling group for pointing me to your blog! <br /><br />Susan, aka Soozie4Him<br />moot96 AT aol DOT com (I don't use the gmail address)Soozie4Himhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18009767527773270743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-48928424641144138942015-12-16T18:26:44.633-07:002015-12-16T18:26:44.633-07:00Lovely post, Brenda.
