My Grandmother Everyone loves to see Grandma Lobb come for a visit.
When she gets off the train her blue eyes sparkle as she sees her children and grandchildren again.
Life is merry when she is with us because she has such a pleasant disposition. Quietly she sits in the rocking chair
listening to each and every one as they tell her their experiences since her last visit.
Even though her back
slips out of place and she is in great pain, she never complains, but when asked how she feels she smiles
and says,"Fine, just fine".
Grandma Lobb is a great lover of all kinds of music and enjoys listening to records
and my accordion playing. Never harsh in her criticism, she manages in her quiet way to let me know that I should
practice more in order to obtain perfection. I value her opinion because she plays the piano and violin.
When a crowd gathers in the house, Grandma Lobb can always be found in a corner listening to someone's troubles,
giving encouragement to people who know that their confidences will not be revealed to anyone.
Grandma's
sense of humor is very keen. She laughs softly at the funny things the family tells her.
Tears are shed
as we take her to the train because we know it will be another long year before we will see her again.
