    Today I'm thankful for a long talk on the phone with my Gram in NY.  I don't see her often enough because of the distance but I'm going to start planning a trip for next year and pray that it works out. 
I'm thankful for a Grandmother who has always been a big part of my life. 
I love to hear about when she was growing up and her highschool sweetheart who was my Grandfather. 
She laughs alot.  
She plays the piano, banjo, and recently taught herself the mandolin. 
She walks alot too and has always had loads of energy. 
She also likes to swim. 
Her house always smelled like freshly brewed coffee and when she comes here we have coffee together.  Morning and Afternoon.
She loves the color red. 
She used to tell us bedtime stories when we visited her.  She made them up right off the top of her head.
