GPOYW - With Grandpa Late last night my mom called to tell me my grandpa had a stroke. He was with my dad on a road trip to Montana when it happened. The doctor discovered he’s actually had a series of small strokes, which medically, often indicates a big one is imminent. I’m very sad. My grandpa has had a great affect on my life. Yes, aging is natural, but it doesn’t mean it’s an easy thing to accept. Knowing his health is failing is extremely hard for me.  This picture was taken at my grandparents house in Walla Walla, WA when I was about two or three years old. Don’t ask me what’s up with my mouth?! I was probably licking my lips from eating too many boysenberries in the field. I love this picture though. Even then, he was showing me around, piquing my curiosity and opening my eyes to discover and learn new things.
