BUZZNET STORY TELLER'S GROUP...ASSIGNMENT #16...TREASURE HUNT!

My greatest treasures are my family members!  There are so many of them, I could never choose one over the other!  So, I decided to write this assignment about my grandmother who passed away nearly 4 years ago! 

She was an AMAZING woman!  I am going to tell you about two of them!  In the first one I was very small !  I am not sure where my mom was, but I remember that I wanted my grandma!  I had a high fever and I felt very sick!  She took me up into her lap and sat in her favorite rocking chair!  I had my arms tight around her neck and my head on her shoulder!  She was singing country and western songs to me, and I started to fall asleep! I could see the living room light fade in and out of my sight!  I later woke up all wrapped up in her big soft bed!  I always knew she loved and cared about me!

The second memory is from high school !  My parents had to go out of town the weekend of my junior prom!  That was my first prom!  I was devastated that my mom wouldn't be there to help me get ready and see me off!  So, my grandma came over to stay with Andy and I for that weekend!  My grandma and I spent that whole day together!  She fussed over my dress, and helped me do my hair and make up!  We spent that whole afternoon having girl time and chatting away!  I wish I could live that day over again just one more time!

Her name was Rosemary and that was very fitting!  She was a rare and beautiful wild rose!  Each June when they bloom I am reminded of her spirit and I know that she will always be near me!  I will always love her, and treasure my memories of time spent with her!
