Being a Grandma

Silas, Grandma and Claire Callisto. Easter 2007.

To say Claire loved being Grandma would be an understatement. It was her focus and passion since retirement from teaching. Her rooms were always decorated with the newest art from Silas and Claire Callisto and she always had time to hear about their days and answer their questions.

Grandma read to them from the moment she could put them on her lap, and it was a great joy to her that she saw both become not only good readers, but truly passionate about reading and learning. I think any grandparent would agree, that Claire’s greatest legacy is her grandchildren. – Alice io

    I found the poem that we wrote. Wished I had read it out loud! We followed the more simple form than Veranda did. Ours spells out Grandma.

    Great
