I have never seen my 奶奶. Dad married late and waited before he decided to have us (me and my brother). I grew up with nannies. Always envied those kids showered by the love of their grandparents. One more reason to persuade myself get married and have bebes asap. Or else my children will be like me. How wonderful it is to have grandmother's fat little head 随着我的走动转来转去
Simple wording, yet, can not stash your true affection and anguish. Hoping your trip to China would allow you to express your feeling towards your grandma who may be an ordinary women on the surface but may have a golden heart inside.
