Missing Grandpa

I miss my maternal grandfather. The last time we were together was during the holidays when we were all in Manila. That is almost a year ago.

Lolo N, as we call him, is as busy as ever with his life in the province, even at the age of 87. He regularly tends to our farm, raising goats and growing mango trees, and for leisure, he makes it a point to go to the driving range to hit some balls. The only thing that is slowing him down is his arthritic knees.

We are definitely going home to the province to see him when we go back to visit the Philippines next year. I better include a pair of golf shoes in our shopping list as a present for our dear grandfather.
