I was lucky enough to have my grandmother in my life for over 30 years. I have so many memories with her, starting from when I was a little thing. It made me so happy to see her so proud of what she’d produced with her labor, including me. For those who’ve followed along for a while, you probably are familiar with my “why I don’t have children” story. It isn’t straightforward, it isn’t easy, and it isn’t necessarily over. I’ve been thinking about it a lot more these days, partially because I’m in the process of writing my grandmother’s story. Not just the one about how she had six children, but also the one about who she was before she had them.
