The Influence Of Football

My aunt encourages me in everything I do and wants to know about school and sports. If I ever need a ride to school, sports, and field trips, I can always count on her. She has helped to increase my confidence and to believe in myself. I have learned from my Aunt that being a well-rounded person is important. She works hard at her job, makes time for friends and family, and is active at our church.

My grandma had survived a hard life, and yet managed to raise four responsible, well-educated, and successful children. All this she did while working as a respected psychiatric nurse and a state mental health board member. Although she had had and was still overcoming trials in life, I always knew she would be there and cared about me and my life. As my brother and I grew older and were unable to visit my grandparents as often as we

In many ways, my grandma is a stereotypical old granny. She loves to watch game shows on TV, she yells at you for not eating enough, and she constantly needs help with technology. Beneath her rough, wrinkled exterior lies an equally tough spirit. She has faced numerous challenges to get where she is today. Along the way she learned lessons that she passed down to her daughter, who then passed them down to me. My grandma taught me to work hard, to be persistent, and to treat others the way you want to be treated.

My grandma was an amazing woman. She’s really tan, short, and always use to smell bad. I always use to think she never took a shower. She was around her 70’s but she’s one of the nicest people you’d ever meet. She was basically like a second mother to me, because she lived so close to me. I was constantly at her house. Almost every day I would walk down the street and visit.

First, there were certain times when my grandma had taken care of me while I was sick or needed her. I used to run high fevers when I was kid. There were times when I couldn’t wear anything but a t-shit with over a one hundred degree temperature. She cared about the importance of our family and put us before herself. She would stay up with me all night to make sure I was comfortable and safe so my parents could sleep. The amount of love and perspective she had shown and given me makes me want to follow her footsteps in my future.

In order to help those in need my grandma always obtains an open mind. She is very compassionate about her family always ensuring that everyone is safe. My Grandmother is willing to take that extra mile to help in every way possible. When I struggled in getting my license she called and offered to pay for my driving classes informing me that my insurance would go down if I followed through with the

One thing she practically has worked hard for, is keeping the family together. My brother and I, had not had as much contact with our cousins, if we hadn’t had our grandmother. She invites our two families to Sunday dinners, and brings her grandkids to the cinema or theater. Every seventeenth of May, our family stops by her apartment to eat her traditional cake and mixed eggs with sugar. She has brought me to many trips to the mountains, and taught me table manners and to be polite. Even though I don’t see her that much, I appreciate what she has done for me and the

First of all my mamaw has always been there for me she is always there when I need her. Every time I want to go to her house she always comes and get me even though she probably has something important to do. When I ask her to help with my homework she always does and I know I can depend on her. She has only told me no to eating too much ice cream or too much sweets. The point is I care about my grandma just like she cares about me.

Throughout my life, living with my mother whom has had several health issues i’ve had to be there for her through so much. I’ve had to play the role of being her advocate, her supporter and a shoulder to cry on. In a weird way all her health issues were almost a bonding experience. It definitely made us closer as mother and daughter. Without my mother I would have never chosen the medical field as my career path. I always thank her for helping me make that big decision in my life, because even as an LNA, I love what I do and can’t wait to expand my horizon.

My Grandmother has been very generous to me throughout my life. She has basically raised me from the day I was born. She shows her generosity throughout every aspect of her life. One cold day a emaciated little dog showed up at her house, now most people would have taken it to the pound

I sprained my ankle at a softball game. I went to the hospital, they gave me the things I needed: crutches, the blue stabilizer thing. I never had to use crutches before, so I never knew how to use them. I was a kid back then, so I didn’t want to stay in bed. I wanted to go to all my dad’s co-ed softball games. I fell so many times on the crutches, I probably would of walked better and faster just by walking regularly. I had to

We got into the waiting room when they said they will be with us shortly. A room full of tears and an immense amount of thoughts was silent. When Dr. Marcotte came in the news was that my grandfather instantly passed away when he hit his head. The room that once was still was now speechless. The mix of emotions and thoughts emerged and this night was a night I would never forget, and not in a good way.

My grandmother has a very softhearted voice that I still hear telling me goodnight when we were little. She would wait with us until we fell deep asleep. And even as we got older she would gather us around the kitchen table and let us watch the old fashioned ice cream maker churn the best vanilla ice cream and then she would load it up with chocolate chips, and our parents would always say, "That's too many.", and grandmother just let us keep piling them on. My grandmother is the kind, gentle, loving, caring grandmother that I wish my children could experience today.

My grandma was also a generous and considerate person because she knew there was only a few of them that owned a vehicle. So she offered them one her trucks for them to go to the supermarket. The supermarket was approximately about an hour away from the ranch. My grandma not only showed her kindness like that but also this time when one of the ladies that worked for her had her little daughter with a high fever, and didn't have the amount of money nor the vehicle, so my grandma paid for everything, and took her.

Growing up my grandma was a very influential person in my life , and we were very close. I would go over to her house on friday nights for a sleepover and always beg mom to let me stay another night. We would go swimming, color, and she would teach me how to cook. Along with her other hobbies her main one was bowling , my Grandma always loved to bowl and she was on a senior bowling league . She was so strong for a 75 year old woman she bowled with a 15 pound bowling ball I couldn 't even throw. I would go with her to the bowling league sometimes and she had so many friends , Everyone loved my grandma in fact she was my dad 's mom and after my parents divorced my mom still called her everyday and had her over for family gatherings, everyone
