How to make Grandparents Day Special 


I can't believe it's been a year since I wrote Grandparents Day is an actual Day  

 

It's this Sunday, btw.  September 11, 2011.

 

Every day on our way to school, we drive past the cemetery on City Park Ave.  And for some strange reason, I always think of my grandmother, Patricia Ann Casey.

 

She's as Irish as the whiskey she drinks.
