A Question for Grandma

A grandson spends his day at his grandmother’s. Together, they cook, mop the floor, knit, read picture books and ride the bicycle. But the grandson cannot get one question out of his mind – he keeps asking his grandmother when she will die. When Grandma takes him into her arms and tackles his question, she realizes what concerns him: he would like to spend many more holidays with her.
