Granddaughter Michelle

Miche, as she prefers to be called, is in the fifth grade this year and a serious student. She works hard to get good grades. It was with great delight that Grammy was able to hear her read the other night as a part of her homework assignment. She had good inflection and made the story very interesting to hear, having hardly any trouble with the words being read. She is also quite an athlete. For a long time she was involved in competitive gymnastics, but she finally decided the pressure was too much, and it was no longer fun. She could sure do all the routines very well! These days she spends as much time as she can swimming in the pool in the back yard and does many routines there, too. It is always a joy to be able to visit with and see what this young lady is doing.

A couple of years ago, Grammy was knitting many comfortors for many of the grandchildren. Miche wanted Grammy to finish knitting hers in the worst way, before we needed to leave Albuquerque, and kept saying to Grammy, "SEW, Grammy, SEW!" It was very cute to watch Grammy being vulched by Miche. She did get her comfortor before we left, though, and has spent many happy hours wrapped up in it. Miche said, "It smells like Grammy, too."
