Grandma raised all of us. She let us ride mattresses (床垫) down the stairs, ski on the little hill in her backyard. and watch movies at late night. She taught all 9 grandkids how to swim in the pool. She taught us how to be creative, make Christmas cookies, and help those less fortunate (幸运的 ) than us. It’s hard to believe that she doesn’t remember our names or other children’s. But for her sake it’s all OK. I tell her that it’s just all right and that’s how it’s supposed to be. As long as she’s happy, the memory doesn’t need to be here.

There’s one name she does remember, though. She called him by his name: Charlie. Her Charlie. We miss what my grandma used to be and we miss her Charlie. But yesterday was a wonderful day for us. We had her laugh and through that laugh and the way she said his name, we had grandpa there too.

Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream come true?

Andrew Matews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams come true is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it’s impossible for you to become a writer, Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream.

In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what

your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and

then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is,in fact, made up of many small dreams.

You must also never give up your dream, There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from you. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.

As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.
