Personal Childhood Web

Grandmother Corine- My grandmother was very loving and caring. She made sure I had three meals a day. She taught me that there are so many ways to show someone you care. Her way of showing her love was with food. She nurtured me by making sure I ate breakfast every morning before going to school. She made me feel special by fixing my plate every morning.


Aunt Linda-My Aunt Linda was my best friend. She was nine years older than me. She would walk me to school every day. During our walk to school, she would listen as I talk about my friends, interests, and my class. My Aunt Linda influenced me by showing me how important it is to listen to children. My Aunt Linda nurtured me by protecting when she walked me to school every day. She made me feel special by giving me a hug before I entered my classroom daily.

Mother-My mother was there with me every night when I would complete my homework. My mother worked during the day so she would spend quality time with me at night. My mother taught me the importance of hardwork and dedication. She nurtured me by reviewing my homework nightly and praying with me. She made me feel special by teaching   me about Christ and education.




Grandpa Andrew-My grandfather was the smartest man I know with only a 6th grade education. My grandfather knew something about everything. He had so much faith in me. My grandfather would tell me that I was smart and I was going to do something special with my life. He influenced me by teaching me that positive words lead to positive actions. My grandfather nurtured me by always complimenting me and making me feel good about myself. My grandfather showed me I was special by always telling me how proud he was of me.


Sister Kristi- My sister Kristi looked up to me. She always wanted to do whatever I did. She would follow me everywhere I go. Kristi was never scared to try anything. She would always do things before I would. Kristi influenced me with her courage. Kristi nurtured my confidence. She would always tell me that I could do whatever I was afraid to do. Kristi showed me I was special by having so much faith in me.

    You have a beautiful family. They are very supportive. Its always nice to have that nuturing mother in your life to teach you about Christ. Having a little sister that looks up to you is nice. I to have a little sister that is 11 years old and I know she looks up to me because she is always with me. Once again beautiful family and supportive.

  2. Minnie, you have a supportive family and from reading your post they really believed in you. I can say that a grandmother will make sure that you have a decent meal to eat no matter what. It's great growing up having that older wisdom taught to you.

  3. Hello Minnie,
    It seems as though you have a very close-knit family. My favorite statement was that of your grandfather, "positive words lead to positive actions." From reading your post, it's obvious that your family has been a great influence in your life and they built a very strong foundation as it pertains to your childhood and even into your adulthood.
