Hello everyone! My name is Lucy and this is my beloved grandfather! His name is Tim and he is my best friend. My grandfather is sixty-four years old and he is retired now, so he has plenty of time to be and play with me. I love him very much and I know he loves me too. We usually spend a lot of time together.

He is a widow and he lives with me, my father, my mother and my brother Kevin. We live in a big house in Fort Collins, Colorado. My grandfather is a very tall and strong mard. Can you see me on his shoulders in this picture? He is really strong! My grandfather is a patient and caring man and sometimes I think he is a magician. He's always guessing what I want to do or to eat or what I feel inside. When I am sad, he always makes me laugh with his funny faces. He puts me on his shoulders, he tells me many stories (I know they are imaginary, but I pretend they are real!), he even sings for me!

Everyday my grandfather Tim prepares my breakfast, he drives me to school and picks me up at the end of classes, he helps me with my school work, he takes me to the swimming pool, he plays chess with me and he counts the stars with me. You know, my grandfather is the only grown - up I know who truly understands me. I love him very much!
