You were supposed to be here yesterday...

were the first words out of my grandmothers mouth when I was a day late for her 97th birthday. She may be old, but she'll still tell you what she thinks in a heartbeat. Forget the loving, squeezy, kissy grandmother image you are so familiar with, mine lets you know what she thinks of your husband, his job, how behaved or in my case how misbehaved your kids are, and lastly how long it's been since you've been to see her.

She's definitely one of a kind. I love her and I'll be back home soon for another go around with her.
