Jennie Mae Allen is my grandmother, my mother’s mother. When I go to see my grandparents in North Carolina my grandmother she has a; great spirit, big on her Christian faith and despite her health challenges has amazing grit.
My grandparents raised three children my mom being the eldest, my Uncle James and the youngest my Uncle Tony. The oldest, my mom, has three children me being the oldest, my middle sister who is fifteen Mya and my youngest sisters Michaela who is six. My Uncle James has two children, Darrius who is nineteen, and Elijah who is 4. Lastly my Uncle Tony with six kids and one grandkid on the way, Cory 20, Akera 16 (who is having a baby), Ashanti 11, Qumonte 10, Sanya 8 and Ayana 6. That is 11 in total.
We all have a great and positive relationship because of my grandmother and my grandfather. When we talk to people we have a smile on our faces that will change the emotion on almost anyone. When someone would come into the house there is so much great hospitality. The family will take your coat, ask of you are hungry or thirsty and treat you like the most special person in the world. You feel like royalty.

I sit and talk to her and we talk about anything and everything. I tell her about school and different friendships. If things are going bad she tells me; “ Everything will get better and Melody I will pray that everything will be right for me. I sit and pray with helps me understand stories in the Bible. I believe because of my grandma and how much she has gone through health wise, I have become better and strong in my Christian faith.
I believe that this reminds me about the chapter titled Fully Alive. Donald is the one who had a strong faith. He says, “I’d tell them they need to- that God is real. And they need to find God and figure it out.” (Shriver
