Aloha Friday - 53


Happy Friday everyone!
This week has literally flown by!
I had no clue it was Friday until I saw another Aloha Friday Post...

My question this week:

Are (Were) you close with your grandparents?


My answer:

I was extremely close with my Nana... I have mentioned that before. She seriously was like a best friend. With my other living grandparents, I try and see them when I can, but I can not say that I am as close with them as I was my Nana.... I know that I am lucky to have such a wonderful family and I am SO HAPPY that Broxton gets to see his GREAT GRANDPARENTS.

    I am very close with the grandparents on my fathers side - at times they practically helped raise me. :)

    Kinda....I grew up with my dad's parents (we lived with them...) but it wasn't until I got older that we got really close. My mom's parents not really...my grandma is so annoying I love her, but she calls me anytime anything bad happens...we had a storm the other day and she called because she heard there were tornados in northern ohio - I live in central my mom's dad I don't really even know

    I didn't know either of my grandmothers as they passed away before I was born. I did get to know both of my grandfathers but I was really close to my Grandpa (my mom's father). He was there for all my firsts. He is gone now and I miss him so much.

    never really met my grandparents in my father's side. my other set of parents ... well, not too close. my grandfather only talks when he's drunk, and my grandmother, well she's such a disciplinarian, but both give great Christmas gifts ...

    I was close to my dad's parents and spent time with them during the summers. My granddad died when I was very young and my grandma moved in with us, then she died when I was a teenager.
    I'm sad that my children didn't get to meet them.
