A layout about one of my most favorite people.

Journaling:
My Grandma was a wise owl. She had all the right answers. I knew it and so did everyone else in Ossett, the town in West Yorkshire where she lived for more than 40 years. She was a teacher s assistant at the local school and everyone knew her. She had a sense of calm about her and a very matter-of-fact approach to life. Vera had her struggles but she never let them show. She was incredibly proud. She and my Grandad became my guardian in my early teens while my parents resided in Germany and I attended boarding school, then college. We were close . Closer than I was to my own Mum at the time due to our circumstance. I was devastated when she died suddenly just a few months after my Grandad. and shortly before I fell pregnant with Ella. I still think of her often. How she might advise me to act in certain situations. She has since come to me in my dreams to help me through tough times, convincing me she is still watching over me somehow. I believe hes my guardian angel. of sorts. A wise owl with wings.
