Song of the Day: "Cool Kids" by Taylor Phelan (The Voice) 



It does not matter the type of relationships that we have with our grandparents, what matters is the memories that they leave us with. Many are not fortunate enough to meet their grandparents as I never met my grandfathers but I had two grandmas. My Grammy was my dad's mom and my angel who passed when I was eight. My Grandma is my mom's mom who turned 96 on January 5th. She and I don't have a super tight relationship; all she cares about is her teacups that she has made for decades. But when I have been in a jam, we all know that she will give you her last dollar. She has helped me when I was in a panic over car insurance in my twenties and when I needed glasses in my teens. Granted, I made sure to pay her back and always find nice little things for her but I wish we had been closer. I wish that we had more in common.
