She passed a few years ago and I really think it was the hospitals fault. She wasn't ready to go. I would stay over, I would snuggle with her at night, she would take me school shopping, camping, fishing and she introduced me to making breakfast with rice, milk, sugar, cinnamon and raisins. To this day that breakfast dish will always remind me of her!Miss Fithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05865267300727217423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290956317767045397.post-84759775560290673412010-04-02T06:34:51.510-04:002010-04-02T06:34:51.510-04:00Mrs. Lucia Wright: I'd like to hear about som...Mrs. Lucia Wright: I'd like to hear about some of your memories of your grandma too. Thanks for saying I have a lovely blog. Sweet of you.<br /><br />Midday Escapades: I'm sure she appreciated your visits very much. Thanks for following me.<br /><br />Lin: My grandma and I never baked cookies. She wasn't much of a cook or baker. That skill just doesn't run in our family; it's no wonder I stay out of the kitchen except to take my pills and feed my pets.<br /><br />Tahtimbo: Those all sound like sweet memories of your grandmother. I do wonder though, why you were afraid to sleep upstairs?? Is that where the monsters lived?<br /><br />Jude: That's so sad you only remember your Granny as being sick and were afraid of her. At least you get to be a good grandma. Thanks again, for your very nice book review! So glad you enjoyed it.<br /><br />Stephanie: That's right--it's the little every day things that make life so special! I love that I can inspire people to make special memories for their kids!Karen, author of "My Funny Dad, Harry"https://www.blogger.com/profile/09712049082814937727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290956317767045397.post-78463035279367047762010-04-01T17:18:23.034-04:002010-04-01T17:18:23.034-04:00what a great tribute to your grandma. inspires to ...what a great tribute to your grandma. inspires to me to make the most of opportunities with my kids... let them use the nice plates, sleep in bed with me when the want, make fun memories... its those little things they'll remember.<br /><br />thanks for sharing.stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12252793800573583629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290956317767045397.post-63868172801960557072010-03-30T14:59:29.507-04:002010-03-30T14:59:29.507-04:00Great memories you have Karen.

We used to take walks around the block; she made the best toast in the world; I would stay overnight there during the summer (I would sleep on the couch in the living room, because I was too afraid to sleep upstairs); she had the most amazing voice and could play the piano like no one could.<br />Thank you for prompting these memories.tahtimbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08597025991965701257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290956317767045397.post-42504465301340375452010-03-26T21:48:02.593-04:002010-03-26T21:48:02.593-04:00I really loved your memories of your grandma, Kare...I really loved your memories of your grandma, Karen, they were so REAL. It is the odd memories (like the horse or sleeping with Grandma) that stand out--not that she baked cookies with you or something. I remember spending the night at my grandma's house too.
