Reading one of my favorite little publications, "The Fishwrapper" I found this article:
• Grandparents are a lady and a man who have no little children of their own. They like other peoples'.
• Grandparents don't have to do anything except to be there when we come to see them. They are old so they shouldn't play hard or run. It is good if they drive us to the store and give us money.
• When they take us for walks, they slow down for things like pretty leaves and caterpillars.
• They show us and talk to us about the colors of the flowers and also why we shouldn't step on sidewalk cracks.
• The don't say, "Hurry up."
• Usually grandmothers are kind of fat, but not too fat to tie your shoes.
• When they read to us, they don't skip. They don't mind if we ask for the same story over again.
• Everybody should try to have a grandmother because they are grownups who like to spend time with us.
• They know we should have a snack time before bedtime, and they say prayers with us and kiss us even when we've acted bad.
• Grandpa is the smartest man on earth! He teaches me good things, but I don't get to see him enough to get as smart as him.
Great article, great publication, & great content!!
