I'm proud, though, that I write and spell A great big word, and Mamma says I really do it very well. Course Mamma showed me how to print This word — it's letters slow I'll say. Can you pronounce it when I've done? It's G-r-a-n-d-m-a. GRANDMA (41) Contrast 'Tis queer to think of our Grandmas, That once they were but little girls, And wore their hair in long pigtails, Or else in funny, bobbing curls. 'Tis queer to think they ran and played, And laughed and romped in childish glee. I wonder if the...y ever tired, And rested on their Mother's knee. But sad to think they had to work, And learn to sweep, and bake, and mend. 'Tis painful how they had to sit And stitch those long seams without end. There's much to envy 'bout those days, And much looks most unpleasant, too. I think I'd rather live to-day, Because there is much less to do ! (42) GRANDMA /'// Be Your Valentine I took some paper, pen and ink, And tried so hard to make A pretty one and write on it "For your own dear, sweet sake." But soon I found that drawing things Is clearly not my line, But if you think I'll do for one I'll be your valentine.
