Visit With Grandma

I went to visit Grandma P. We had a nice conversation. She told me a little about what life was like when she was little and growing up. When she was very little she was kidnapped by her father and grandma and moved to Colorado! A little background GP's parents were divorced and her mom had to work nights. Her mother dropped the kids off at a daycare and in the middle of the night GP's dad and grandma came and kidnapped them. Her father re-married a very abusive woman.

One story she told happened when she was around 17. Her step mom had a very dirty mouth and was swearing/yelling at her. GP was ignoring the rude/dirty remarks. So her step mom came around and yanked her long red hair, this was the last straw for GP she turned and punched her step mom in the face! She said it made her feel so much better, but knows it was probably wrong. When her dad came home he took her outside to spank her and she was out there with him and said “if you touch me I will never talk to you again”. He didn't spank her probably because he know the step mom was a witch and abusive. It was an enjoyable conversation. I also learned what I thought to be true. Grandma was married and divorced before Grandpa H. She was going through a divorce at 21. She's never talked about what happened with her first marriage to ANYONE. A while back I heard second hand from my brother who heard it from my Aunt who heard it from my Great Grandma that she was in a relationship at a young age. I'm interested to know what happened and why she's kept it secret all these years.  I'm thankful to have such a loving Grandma although she's had a difficult/painful life.
