This beautiful lady is my grandma, and she passed away this week.
I will remember her for so many things: teaching me to spell abracadabra and supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (hope I got those right), scoring my sister and I in dancing competitions, her apple pie, her love of the water, diving for her teeth when they fell out at the public pool, the many letters that she has written me (and I’ve kept every one), her excitement each time I told her I was pregnant, her laughter when she heard a funny story about the kids…
I will miss you Grandma.
