Write a description of either your grandmother or grandfather.

MY GRANDMOTHER

My grandmother, my father’s mother, lives with us in our flat. She is the grand matriarch of the family and it is clear that she is the person who is in charge of all family decisions. For a person of her age she is very healthy and strong, even though the only exercise she takes are long walks around the neighbourhood. Her memory is very good and she can remember the names, the classes they are in and the birthdays of all her nineteen grandchildren.

She will be sixty years old at the end of this year. She cannot remember when she was born but she has vivid memories about her younger days in China. She enjoys telling us stories about her hard life in China and in early Singapore. What is really delightful is when she talks about father and all his naughty tricks when he was a boy. I am surprised when I hear some of them because it seems that Father was one of the naughtiest boys that ever lived. Usually he is embarrassed when his mother talks about him and when we laugh at his antics.

The way she talks to her children, my father, uncles and aunts, it is as if they were still little children. They seem very afraid of her and do whatever she tells them to at once. This is very good for all of us grandchildren, especially for me. Grandma is always available for us to hide behind. She will protect us from our parents, even when we have done something naughty. Somehow she scems less strict towards us than towards her own children.

But of late she has slowed down a little. I am beginning to see that she is not as strong as she used to be. She pants whenever she has to climb the steps and likes to lie down most of the time. She also seems to get sick more often. My parents have assured me that it is nothing to worry about, but I am a little concerned. I want my grandmother to be with us for a long time.
