Letter from "my" great grandmother to my dad

I can totally see my mom whooping me for that. Except it would be for hot cereal. I detest hot cereal. It would have been a “power” thing to my mom.


She wrote diaries for my brother and me for the first couple years of our lives with her. My favorite story is that she always read Bible stories from the Children’s Bible during breakfast, and when I was around a year old she wondered if I was retaining any of the stories. She was reading the story of Joseph in Egypt and came to the part where Pharaoh calls him from prison to interpret his dreams. Joseph shaved before going before Pharaoh. She says I put down the spoon (from eating my cereal) and mimicked shaving with an electric razor like Dad. I guess I learned to eat that cereal. The only way I eat cereal now is pouring it on top of milk or eating it in rice crispy treats (with brown butter  ). I only like oatmeal as granola but do like rice heated with a little milk, butter, and sugar.

Rob’s mom wrote her dad a letter when Rob was born. She announced that they’d named him after Grandpa. The letter is sweet and a family treasure.
