Everyone has their favorite grandma. You are lucky one if she's still with you. I have so less memory with her cause we lived in different countries. She lived in Thailand but I lived in Shan State , Myanmar. She often visited us in summer.
I still remembered that at one time she visited me, she bought me a tiny hair shampoo I wanted for a long time. It is just a shampoo but it means a lot to me. Everyone else was not interested to buy me what I want.

The longest time I spent with her is two months. That's when she took me to visit my relatives in her village, Mong Kung. It's a small village and far from the town. To reach Mong Kung , we have to pass through fields. I was just 6 years old and I couldn't remember everything. But I know I had a lot of good memories there.

It was a long time ago. During my visit, there's only one big Television and one grocery store in the whole village and also no electricity. The house I was going to stay didn't have a child and so there was no tree swing. But they heard about my visit and they installed a tree swing for me immediately. That was the warmest welcome.

When we wanted to go to another village, we had to walk through the forest. There's nothing but tall trees, fallen leaves on the ground and a small path which is only 1 and a half ft wide. She leaded the way and I followed.That's the most adventurous trip , my grandma and I, just the two of us in the forest I've never been to.I thought we'd not get to home in time. For me as a child, it was so scary.
I got so many friends there. They're the most affable people. I'm so glad to meet with them.I hope all of us can reunion and talk about the old days. For now, I have no contact with them at all.
My grandma once took me to the festival of the village's pagoda. There's a studio where you could take photos for 2000 mmk at that time. My grandma got me to take photos so she could keep my pic.I still remembered that I wore a new red jumpsuit and I had a toy phone which she bought for me that day. I was being a boss baby with a toy phone. I could still figure how the photos were taken.
Even though I couldn't stay beside her during her last times, I wish she had known how much I love her and how much strength she's still giving me now. She is the gift that God gives me. If there's next life, I wish deeply to have a better life and a lot of good memories with you , Grandma.
