and one day God said "I need to give little girls someone to look up too, who is wise, knows all things in the kitchen, has life stories to tell and lessons to teach" so God made a grandma.

I need someone who will pray for hours without ceasing, so God made a grandma

I need someone who knows the value of a dollar, so God made a grandma.

I need someone who is so kind hearted they pray for their enemies, so God mad a grandma.

I need someone who will say "love you more" every time they they call or text, so God made a grandma

I need someone who has seen the best times and the worst times, so God made a grandma.

I need someone who will go on adventures and look at my creations with awe, so God made a grandma.

I need someone who can love their children's children with their whole heart, so God made a grandma.

I need someone who knows just the right time to send a "how are you" text, so God made a grandma.

I need someone who knows how to make pecan pie just right, so God made a grandma.

I need someone who will cook every meal, do the dishes and just be happy to be around family, so God made a grandma.

I need someone who will lead people to me by their actions and soft spoken words, so God made a grandma.

A grandma is an incredibly special gift from God. Value their wisdom, learn from their mistakes and take their advice to heart. They have been there and done it and have managed to survive this crazy thing called life. Spend every ounce of time you can and soak it all up because one day you will wish you had.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from.

Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating.
