#grand

I love to be with my son and my grandchildren, like normal people. I have no particular idea of what I represent to other people. It's very mysterious to me. I don't understand it. ↗

Grandmotherhood initiated me into a world of play, where all things became fresh, alive, and honest again through my grandchildren's eyes. Mostly, it retaught me love. ↗

In the absence of a cat, I’d consider cuddling with a synthetic fur coat. Especially if your dead grandma was wearing it.

I like watching baseball as much as my grandma’s left ear is loud. (She’d probably give her right ear for a left ear that wasn’t soundproof).

LUKE: I didn’t know I ever had a grandfather. JESSICA: I am surprised you never inquired whether you should. Having a grandfather is an excellent way to establish a legacy for oneself. LUKE: In that case, I’d like five grandfathers. JESSICA: In due time. Grandfathers don’t grow on family trees. They require convincing documentation and consistent memories of wisdom and inspiration. ↗

Grandpa always used to make me ride in the bed of his pickup truck, so he could keep up his conversations with the 100-pound sack of manure he kept buckled up in the passenger seat. Grandpa said all they ever talked about was grass, but I know Grandpa used to do a little flirting, too. ↗

Climbing K2 or floating the Grand Canyon in an inner tube; there are some things one would rather have done than do. ↗

When I was a little kid - and even still - I loved magic tricks. When I saw how movies got made - at least had a glimpse when I went on the Universal Studios tour with my grandfather, I remember feeling like this was another means by which I could do magic. ↗

The only things in my life that compatibly exists with this grand universe are the creative works of the human spirit. ↗
