Today I went to the funeral of my cousins' grandma. One of their cousins talked about not knowing his grandpa, but from what he knows of him, he believed that he would have been a different person if he had been alive. I know I was a different person because of my grandparents. I remember thinking if I messed up, it would be way worse to have to tell my grandpa what I had done than to tell my parents. I knew I never wanted to embarrass my grandparents, or disappoint them...My life was blessed by the grandparents I was given, and I am so grateful...... When I was a kid I used to spin around on that stop sign on the corner. I have so many good memories at this address, and I will forever be better because of them...

What good book are you reading?
I've always been so envious of your closeness to your grandparents (family in general). I was never really close with mine. The ones that lived here had 50 other grandkids here that they had to spread the love between, and the other ones lived far away. I'm glad you appreciate how close you were/are with them.
That was a cool tribute to our parents, your grandparents. You guys were very lucky to have the time you were given to spend with them. That stuck out to me alot as well when Matt Kessie said that. My thoughts were immediate to the fact that my children were lucky to have been old enough to remember my dad before his passing...and you had alot of great years with Grandma Goude and Grandpa Landoni. Make sure you spend your time well with Grandma Landoni since she is the last one standing so to speak.
Yeah, I never knew my grandparents very well, either. We always lived too far away to see them often. It makes me want my kids to be near their grandparents as much as possible. NEVER pay for a book. Use the library... Email me and ask me if I have a digital copy of it... I just might. I hate paying for books, too.
