babuska

The word for grandmother in Russian is BABUSHKA with the emphasis on the on the first A. My BABUSHKA was not  soft-spoken or kind-mannered. She worked her whole life and earned a lot of wealth for her family, anything that was imaginable in the communist economy of the totalitarian state. Thanks to her we lived in the capital city in two private apartments and had a summer house two hour away from Moscow.
