Sad to leave but happy I had the opportunity to visit! Love spending time with gram… She means the world to me!! She is responsible for so much of the strong willed, fiercely independent woman I am proud to be. She has displayed acts of strength and courage and feminism so outside of the norm for women of her day, particularly in war torn Germany in the 1940's and beyond. Eventually raising two beautiful girls as a single mom while working as an armed security guard on the pipeline in Alaska (and not taking any shit from anyone!!) Love her so much and glad I can sneak away for visits as often as I've been able to. #family #matriarch #strongwomen #feisty #grandma #familyfirst
