September is
chilly mornings
and classroom routines,
cardigans dragged home,
and the onset of colds.
Grandma packs her bag
with activities to distract,
a soup to boost bodies
and an apple crisp
fresh from the oven.
Some days
the best education
comes snuggled under
warm blankets with
inter-generational love.
(For Ragtag Communty’s daily prompt: crisp. Grandma duty calls, be back later!)
Aww, touching and heartfelt! Hmm, love the smell of apple crisps

Awww…. I love this one V.J.! This brings back memories of spending time with my Grandma when I was little. There wasn’t any one big thing that made those times special; it was all the little things that meant so much. You’re making memories with those sweet grand babies that will linger throughout their lives.

Thanks Terri. This one called me all by herself last night to tell me she wasn’t feeling well. An offer I can’t refuse.

Aww such a touching piece, it’s so warm and comforting. It made me wish I was able to spend time with my grandma when I was little, I always missed that intergenerational aspect and extended family part ♥
