I’d like to tell you a little bit about myself and why I wrote “WE ARE DIFFERENT, YOU AND ME.” I have eight children, twenty-three grandchildren and at this time six great-grandchildren. Before my youngest two children were out of elementary school, the grandchildren began to show up and that started “GRANDMA’S BABYSITTING SERVICE.” With parents either working or going to college, I spent twenty-six years caring for grandchildren, often seven days a week. If you add the time of raising my own children, that makes fifty years non-stop babies and children of all ages. Most days I cared for ten and twelve grandchildren at a time.
I wrote “WE ARE DIFFERENT, YOU AND ME” after a rough day of refereeing the grandchildren. I wrote a second book (a sequel to the first) for the same reason, which will be published soon.
