  "Grandma, Grandma, tell us a story!" Four darling children sat by my feet, looking up at me expectantly.

  Suddenly, we were interrupted by clapping."Terrific, " the director said, stepping up to the stage from the aisle(过道).“Except, could you kids face the audience a bit more?"

  The kids shifted to face the empty seats, which would be filled in a few days for the church play."Perfect, " the director said."Now, Grandma, read to your grandchildren." A pang of sadness hit me.If only I could read to my real grandchildren!

  I had a granddaughter, but I'd never met her.Sixteen years earlier my son was involved in a relationship that ended badly.But out of it came a blessing: a baby girl named Lena.I hoped to be a grandmother to her-- but shortly after the birth, the mother moved without any address left.Over the years, I asked around town to try and find my son's ex-wife, but it seemed that she didn't want to be found.

  I'd just joined this new church a week earlier, and was at once offered the part of Grandma in the play.At least now I could pretend to be a grandma.The rehearsals went well, and finally the day of the show arrived.The performance was great."You all looked so natural up there, " one of my friends said.

  Afterward, we went to the church basement for refreshments.I walked over to one of the girls in the play.Rehearsals had been in such a hurry that we never really got to talk."How's my granddaughter?" I joked.

  " Fine!" she answered.Just then, someone else walked up and asked the girl her name.

  I wasn't sure I heard the girl's answer correctly.But it made me ask her another question."What's your mother's name?"

  She told me.I was still in shock."And what's your father's name?" I asked.It was my son.

  She'd only started going to that church a week before I did.Since that day of the play, we've stayed close.Not long ago, she even made me a great grandma.
