As I prepare for grandparenthood, I cant help but reflect on my grandma. The feel of her freshly pressed apron and how she smelt of lavender and peanuts. Her arms were always open for hugging, her lap the extra chair at the table. Within her smile you found the strength to brush off the dirt and stand back up, get back in and finish what you started! She loved all her grandchildren equally and unconditionally thru all their happy and sad times. We all had fudge and cookies sent to us thru the years. Miraculously she could sew us girls pretty dresses that fit perfectly, just with measurements our moms sent. She fought social injustice, descrimination, the loss of her children and survived to 92. This is what I hope to emulate. Love you grandma Genevieve.
