When they take us for walks, they slow down past things like pretty leaves and caterpillars.  They don’t say, “Hurry up.”

When they read to us, they don’t skip.  They don’t mind if we ask for the same story over again.

Everybody should try to have a grandmother, especially if you don’t have television, because they are the only grownups who like to spend time with us.
