Q: What will you never forget about Sandra? A: Visiting Grandma's House Was Da Bomb, She ALWAYS gteated me with warm hugs but always made it a point to not mess up or touch her eyebrows during the welcoming hug due to the fact that they had been drawn on and considered works of art LBS! She made it a point to always stress discipline and good behavior and if accomplished there would be rewards and treats that followed! Such Treats And Rewards included "Chocolate Milk" with my lunch and Playing "Crash Bandicoot" with her on the PlaySation although she was alot better than I was at the game so it usually ended up with me watching her Jump, Hoot, and Holler at the game as she passed each level with ease and saying " You See Randy Grandma's Can Play The PlayStation Too" knowing she had been secretly practicing everyday since my last visit LBS!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK GRANDMA!!! SO DONT YOU EVER FORGET IT!!! LOVE YOU ALWAYSYOUR GRANDSON AND PLAYSTATION TEAMMATE Randy Steven Michael Stone
