Three people besides myself wrote about Esther May Riley Gilmore in an English assignment on "Eccentrics".
As a grandmother, she gives all of us permission to be our very own unapologetic selves!
When you said "Grandma, you look so nice today". She always said something like "I know I do". Or "Yes, I know".
No false modesty- No "oh, this old rag". She didn't brag- she was just confident.
She cut her hair really short and wore overalls when it was really shocking. She always marched to her own drummer. And Grandpa marched along with her.
I think my mom was mortified on more than one occassion- But that's just kids for you.
