Grandma

I miss you so much. I miss your laugh, your smile, your cheery voice and endless hugs. I miss your optimism, I miss your happiness that you graciously shared with all. I really don't know what I'm going to do without you. I wish you were here. This is the hardest, most painful experience I've ever had. I am so lost, I don't know what to do. I'm going to live my life for you. I'm going to be just like you. I'm going spread your love and joy, I'm so blessed and honored to call you my grandmother. You never spoke a mean word, you never showed anger, sadness, nor sorrow. Grams, you are the most inspiring, amazing, and incredible woman I've ever met. I would give anything to have you here with me the rest of my life. Your wisdom helped me grow. 





I suppose I need to learn to understand that you're here in a different way, and you still are with me. I know you'll never leave me, you'll always be safe in my heart. I just wish I could look at you, so happy and full of life. Now it's hard to picture holidays without you by my side. I can't imagine not sharing phone calls with you, but I guess I'm going to have to, it's all that I can do. I love you grams, you are missed and loved by all. I'll never forget the last Thanksgiving we shared together this fall.
