Graphic Novel Reflection
After all my ranting and raving about my aunt and banana pudding, I decided it was only fair to show her the project. After her telling me how much she loved it, I went onto ask her some questions. One question I asked was, what was her favorite part of the presentation? And she replied, “My favorite part was the entire project, the fact that you took the time to write about me of all things, I’m glad I was able to make such an impact”. I also asked what was something she realized? And she stated that she didn’t realize how much boxed pudding had an effect on me, and not just me but her as well. Now that she’s heard my perspective on our bonding experience, she says “making banana pudding was something that made me happy because it made you happy, especially when I watched you eat the rest of the pudding mix out of the bowl. I don’t know why but, it just did something to me. It made me feel like I was doing something right, as an aunt.” You see my aunt doesn’t have any kids of her own, so she looks at me as a daughter, when I was young, she kept me a lot when me would work long hours, wake me up and take me to school. So, as you can see our bond was not only solid because of the pudding my aunt was one of the many women in my family I look up too. I also would like to say, showing her this presentation made us want to start cooking together again.
