      I spoke to my grandma about you today. She was moved as I was by your story. Just by waking up every day and showing up for her, you ARE making a difference in her life. Hang in there!

      I agree with Autumn's advice to nurture yourself. An empty bucket has nothing to give to others! And as for reading - that's one of the BEST things you can do with and for kids!

      From Autumn December 17, 2006

      Sounds like you have your hands full! I just wanted to say hi and you are doing a very loving thing to raise your granddaughter so selflessly. My grandmother saved the day for me many times when I was growing up, so believe me when I say: She will not forget. One day when she is grown, she will truly begin to understand the extent of your love for her and experience gratitude like never before. This is what happened to me, and to this day, my 82 year old grandma is one of the people I am closest to in the entire world. My advice: Practice LOTS of patience,don't forget to nurture YOURSELF, too, and read lots of books together!
