Composition Helping Grandma Last Sunday, my parents had errands, so they asked my MeeMaw to babysit me. They dropped me off at her place. As I greeted her, MeeMaw opened her arms and hugged me tight before I could even say hello. Her face lit up with enthusiasm. She must have missed me terribly! Looking back, I realize it had been a while since my last visit. After catching up, she sent me to her room to play while she made us some delicious desserts. Not only was her room as spacious as the living room, but they both were quite messy. Yikes! I hesitated over where to start, but I was determined to be helpful. And of course I insisted that she take a break. First, I gathered all the clothes, sheets, and other laundry items that were spread out everywhere and put them in the hamper. I started a load in the washing machine. While the laundry cycled, I vacuumed the floor, mopped it, and took out the trash. Step by step, the room transformed. I folded the clean laundry, and everything looked neat and tidy. However, her moldy sink was beyond saving. I knew Dad would need to replace it. MeeMaw was so impressed! She showered me with praise and said I was so mature working like a skilled maid. I wasn't sure if "maid" was apt, but I definitely blushed. Finally, we enjoyed our desserts together in her cool and refreshed living room.

As I greeted her, MeeMaw opened her arms and hugged me tight before I could even say hello. Her face lit up with enthusiasm. She must have missed me terribly! Looking back, I realized (unless you mean in the moment you are writing the text -present tense) it had been a while since my last visit. After catching up, she sent me to her room to play while she made us some delicious desserts. Not only was her room as spacious as the living room, but they both were quite messy. Yikes! I hesitated about (or “not knowing”) (because hesitate does not take a direct object and more is needed) where to start, but I was determined to be helpful. And of course I insisted that she take a break. First, I gathered all the clothes, sheets, and other laundry items spread out (also dispersed) (if you write “that” it sounds like the clothes themselves perform the action of spreading out, instead without “that” the verbs “spread out” and “dispersed” act as adjectives in the sentence, which makes more sense and is clearer). and put them in the hamper.
