(This is my Great Grandpa George Gannaway, Grandma, Dad and Kim)Last Wednesday, January 6th, Grandma Ruby turned 90! I didn't write about her that day since I wasn't writing at all, but I just want to say what an amazing lady she is.
She's the last of six siblings:
Mom to four:
Grandma to many:
And even Great Grandma to a few...
Something happened last week that I find amazing. Grandma fell. Now that is not an amazing thing - people fall all the time. But what is truly amazing is that at 90 years old she did not break any bones! As you can see, she's never been a big woman, and she's a tiny thing now, but I believe that all her years of walking (2-3 miles a day) made the difference.
So take a lesson from Grandma Ruby: the mile you walk today could be the bone you don't break tomorrow!

Note well taken. My doctor told me to start walking and to also add ankle weights to strengthen my bones.
