I think our Granny was really just a grown up girl. She let us play because she wanted us to know that when we grew up we would still be kids inside too. She seemed to know just when we needed it. I remember how much she enjoyed watching us. Sometimes I shut the classroom door and let my students just play. I confess that I'm a teacher who lets them throw down the books and cut loose for a while -- our secret! To me it is a life lesson just as important as math or reading. While I enjoy watching them I hope I am making a sweet memory for them. Love you, Liz. What sweet memories! I think our Granny was really just a grown up girl.

I made more than a few ceramic masterpieces in that basement and certainly ate my share of 'buttered popcorn' and chocolate bananas. So glad you found your marigolds, and thank you for bringing back wonderful memories of your grandparents and and our times there together.
