My grandmother.

*Identification ~> introduces the person described.

My grandmother is a very gentle, loving, and caring person. She never raises her voice at anyone. She has lived with me for as long as I can remember. She cakes care of me when mom and go to work.

*Description ~> gives the details of the person described.

My grandmother is  a very neat and tidy person. She has  very dry grey hair which she usually pulls up into a bun. She has dark brown eyes that twinkle whenever she sees me. I hardly ever see them wet.

Grandmother likes to tell stories. She usually tells me brief stories of her childhood and expresses them very well with her tired, old, wrinkled hands. Sometimes, she also tells story about grandfather who has pass away. My dear grandmother always says good things about him. She once told me that he was the nicest person she had ever met.

I really love  my grandmother.
