Hi, dear different readers! I'm Mrs. Anne's friend. I'm an old woman, too. Also, I have two handsome grandsons.
My childhood was spent in the village. I remember there were a lot of cattle in this place. I worked a lot in the field.
By the way, some people think I'm weird because sometimes I start making jokes or telling stories from my life.
"Good morning!" a neighbor's child told me.
"Good morning, kid!" I said.
Now I've been living in our city for over twenty years. I remember how some girl with auburn hair and green eyes was watching her younger twin sisters. They were still young then.
Raymond's friend is my friend. I know his whole family well.
