I miss you so much! Words can’t even describe not only how I miss you right now, but how sorry I feel for my mom. It’s hard to go through almost these sleepless nights without you.I enjoyed spending weekends over at your apartment I’m really gonna miss that. I know you’re in a better place now looking down over me as I bowl and while I’m at work. When I was outside taking out the trash, today, I looked up at the clouds and thought “yep. She’s up there watching over me somewhere!” I know we will meet again one day and when we do, the first thing I’m going to do is give you a great big hug and cry tears of joy. I know you’re gonna love my letter I wrote to you that I will be reading at your funeral on Saturday. I’m very proud of myself. I thank you for taking care of me while you were here and our fun times. I love you grandma!
