My Grandmother also suffered from it. When I was in my 20s, I would turn the corner to my block on my way home from work, and my grandmother would be there, shivering, waiting for me to get off the school bus. It was very sad. And I would try to convince her that I'm not a child anymore and that I was married and have a job and was having a baby and she would tell me not to talk like that, that people would think I was "forward." Which was her way of saying trashy. LOL But what's funny, now that she's gone (many years now), I'd give anything for even the sad times.

I'm blogging again, except through my website, www.RennerWrites.com. I am a children's book author and am querying a manuscript I wrote about a little girl and her grandpa.<br />Thank you for your post.
