this is a traditional navajo woman and man. the title "amasani doo acheii" means "a grandma and a grandpa". in the navajo tradition, we call every elder either amasani or acheii. i grew up with lots of grandmas and grandpas- my real grandma's sisters or brothers or cousins or inlaws or someone just related by clan to her. it wasn't until i moved off the rez and started college that i realized i had only one surviving grandparent.
