13.I was just in France to visit my grandmother who is very dear to me.I don't get to cross the Atlantic very often,and she's now 96years old,so every time I visit her,the two of us are very aware that it might be the last time we see each other.
Last year,I did a series of short video interviews about her life.I asked her what it was like growing up with her father in the 1910s,and living alone with two young children.I asked her about her greatest memories,and her favorite books,foods,etc.I learned a lot of amazing new things about her I had never known before.These were very intimate conversations,which made me better know her.
This year,I did not really have questions and I only had a great desire to make her know how much I loved her.I cooked for her and read her stories.I gave her a foot massage (按摩),which was her first ever!
Before leaving,I was looking for a way to leave something meaningful behind besides the memory of our time together.Therefore,I wrote her five different love notes,and hid them in different places where I knew she would eventually find them.
I left really joyously knowing that these cards would surely cheer her up after I left.She called me as I was travelling back to Paris to catch my plane back to the US and said,"I found your cards!By the time I discovered the last one,I was laughing out loud!Thank you so much,my sweetheart!"I smiled to myself,knowing she still had two more to go!It was Sunday,so my guess was that she had not checked her mailbox and had not yet driven her car!
