True Stories That's Weird, Grandma
Once I was two years old and me and my mom went to the dollar store. I didn’t know no better but I took a bag of Doritos out the store. I put it under my bottom. When we got home she saw them and keep them.
Once I was at a store and my mom said, “Stay real close”. I wonder off I almost got lost. I saw my mom ran to her she kissed and had a long talk with her. To that day I don’t leave my mother’s side until, no, well sometimes.
