I know when they grow old they need somebody to listen, talk and just be there for them. What I am proud of is making them smile and help them at the same time. I have five kids and eight grand kids. I don't have my parents anymore but to me taking care of anybody that needed help is like taking care of my parents. I am very easy to get along with. If I can be given the opportunity to prove myself.
