Male Female

The person I want to speak about today is my grandmother. She comes to visit us every week. It's like a regular habit. She doesn't miss a week unless she is very sick, which is one of the things that makes her a kind and caring person. I also go to visit her every week in case she is sick, or even if she is not sick. I always love to go and see her because she treats me well. Not just me, she treats all of her grandchildren well. She doesn't treat anyone better than the others; they are all the same for her. I think this is what makes her a very intelligent person. People often think of her as a helpful and wise person because whenever there's a problem in the family or in the neighborhood, they come to her to fix it. They come to her for a solution, and this is one of the main reasons why I and everyone like her. Another reason is that whenever I come to visit her, she gives me all the food she has. She tries to make sure that I have eaten well and that I am progressing in my life. She always asks me about my job and my studies. She has helped me personally when I needed money once. So I think that makes her a very helpful person.
