We have a very interesting relationship with T's son's maternal grandmother. We go to holidays at her house, tailgate together, and have just made a friendship that most people don't have with their ex's mother. One day the discussion of Harley's came up she swore she would never get on a bike but you could already see the lust in her eyes. One day after a game we decided to take a ride with a friend and he asked her if she wanted to go, and she again declined. At a football party one day she finally agreed to go. We grabbed her up early in the morning and rode about 40 miles, stopped to give her an experience with a biker bar and she has been hooked ever since.
One day Ben was trying to catch us with her on the back, and got the speed up to 100 before he caught us. He has been calling her 100 mile grandma ever since.
We have been out on several rides, sometimes with T, and sometimes with Ben and every time her smile is so big she has to floss the bugs out of her teeth. Today T took her to get her first piece of Harley apparel. She is very conservative but slowly coming out of that shell. She wanted something sexy but not slutty, warm but not hot and here is what she got.
We are so proud of her for being who she wants to be after being wife, mom, grandma, babysitter, problem solver, teacher and so many other important roles for so much of her life.
