11. Final draft.

My role model is my grandmother Lola, because she is sincere, persistent and devoted to
the family. First, my grandmother is a sincere person because she says everything that

she thinks directly. I remember when my grandmother knew that my grandfather had
cancer, but he did not want to say it to the family. So, my grandmother knew that

information was important and she told us the true. Second, she is persistent because she
works very hard to achieve her goals despite her age. When my grandfather died, she was

very sad, but she knew that she had to overcome that difficult moment. One consequence

was that she decided to buy some land to cultivate flowers. Finally, she is devoted to her
family because she is always aware that everybody is fine. For example, in each holiday

or date special my grandmother looks the way that the whole family meet and share
moments together and do not lose contact with us.

I admire her because she has exceptional qualities like sincerity, persistence and devotion

to her family and I hope that she will live a lot of years in order that we can share a lot of
moments with her.
