@mamacita Please let me borrow your Auntie or Granny. Your description sounds so lovely. When i was in 5th grade, I stepped too close to a classmate who was swinging his bat at softball, because I wanted to correct the way he was holding it. Instead he connected with the side of my head, as he swung. Our teacher enveloped me in a big hug, and to this day, all I could think was, "this is the first time being hugged by someone." Connect is a place for me.

@ginger, Volunteer Mentor, I gladly donate all of my memories of Grandmotherly love to you.

It would give me great pleasure to share what meant so much to me as a young child, growing up.

Love and virtual hugs,

Mamacita Jane
