My grandma is better than yours...





There are moments where your heart is filled with so much yearning that any-little-emotion will cause instantaneous combustion.  My heart is in overload.  I miss my grandma.  Unless you live an entire continent away from your grandma, you just do not know how I feel.  

Fortunately for me, my grandma will be here next weekend.  For four months I will be able to enjoy all that is grandma.  She is bossy and stubborn and strong-willed and sassy, but, she is mine (okay, I may share her with my cousins and siblings, whatever).  I cannot wait to give her a hug and to hear her say my name.  I am her favorite, if you must know.    She would always whisper in my ear, "Renata, you are my favorite grand child, shhh".  

And, look at her.  How many of you can say your grandma is this fashionable?  She is wearing leggings, for goodness sakes!  The woman doesn't ever leave the house without her lipstick, true story.  And flip flops?  They are considered "inside" shoes.  Once she saw a young girl wearing yoga pants and asked me, "Why do so many young women wear pajamas to the mall".  She eats her pizza with a knife and fork and makes the best chocolate cake known to mankind.

She has a piece of my heart and next week I'll get it back (temporarily).
