She provided for us kids

When I was a kid, my grandmother worked at the Coca-Cola bottling plant in Cincinnati, Ohio. She would always come home and bring us kids Cokes. We would pop the tops off and chug them. She would tell us not to, but we couldn't help ourselves. Kids will be kids, right? Then years and years later I worked there too and stayed for a while just not as long as her. Funny to think of my grandmother working there, but she did it amazingly well. She took care of me and my little brother growing up with that job.

I am the baby out of 6 kids. My Dad was a traveling salesman so my mom was a stay at home mom. When I was 13 she went back to work after 20yrs being away from the working world. She recently retired and worked at the same place for 35yrs. I only wish I had half the dedicated work ethic as my Mom. As a Grandma she is still trucking.

I loved coke as a kid too. God as an adult I think of all the sugar we drank in those things, but it was totally worth it.

Grandmothers are very special people. Sounds like she was a good influence on you and your bro.
