These kids are truly blessed because grandparents are ideally suited to the task - commanding more respect, having more wisdom and patience, and above all providing the love and security so badly needed.josie2shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15452791371126155173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2602896217001030036.post-36206062086377858712007-04-09T10:33:00.000-07:002007-04-09T10:33:00.000-07:00I wish I felt the love from my one surviving grand...I wish I felt the love from my one surviving grandma. The grandma that passed 9 years ago was the one who showed the most love for me. She told me constantly. The one I have now, barely talks to me, she's angry and complaining all the time, and it seems like any affection is forced affection. Quite frankly, I'm glad she had nothing to do with my up bringing.<BR/><BR/>However, it was a lovely blog dear... ;)Alissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14485402962547207274noreply@blogger.com
