Grandma Minnie was about 5 feet tall, Grandma Teenie about 5 foot 3 inches or so.

My mom's mom was tiny.  I think she was a little less than 5 feet tall.

My grandmother was the first coed in the dorms with a car at the University of Connecticut in the early 1920's.  She had to ask for permission to take it out ::)

I actually fell asleep during an air show.  PA was astonished that I did it with all the noise.  Could I help it if I was bored?

My mother is also 5'3" or even 5'2".

  All four of my grandparents were between 5'2" and 5'6".
  My mother was 5'2" and my father is 5'7".  I am 5'2". 
  We are all short-to-medium height people in my family. 

  Here we are straining to see over people's heads in church!
