Let’s read a poem about Grandma’s love.



                                         I got some jam on her new couch,


                                             But Grandma doesn’t care.



                                      I lost my toothbrush, dropped a glass,


                                              My old jeans have a tear.



                                         I tipped the cat dish on the floor,


                                               My feet are always bare,


                                            The way I look is a disgrace,



                                             But, Grandma doesn’t care.


                                           She’s very busy, then she sees,

                                                                                     What are some
                                                The tangles in my hair               activities that you    Let’s connect
                                                                                     usually enjoy doing with
          She gets a brush, I make a fuss,                                           your grandparents?


          But, Grandma doesn’t care.



          When I am grown, and on my own,


          When visits become rare,



          I won’t forget the love I’d get


          When Grandma didn’t care.



           tear: (here) a hole
           bare: not covered by anything
           disgrace: (here) shameful
           tangles: a twisted mass of hair
           make a fuss: to become angry
           and complain
           rare: not happening very often
