day 4: your parents


i was lucky to be raised by my precious great grandmother. she was every bit of parent i needed. i can only hope to give my kids an ounce of the love, trust, and respect she gave me.

she was not particularly strict. i never was grounded. and that's not to say i never messed up... i did. but many bad choices were averted because i could not bear to disappoint her. far worse to disappoint than to spend the weekend locked away in my room.

thank you bunbun.

no, this is not my great grandmother. but, it could be.
