So, as promised Granny or shall I say my Cookie Grandma (I'll explain her nickname down below don't worry). It is my honor to be writing this a few days after your birthday. I can't wait to dive into what you mean to me. So let's get this party... I mean article started!
I have loved growing up with you. Even though there are some memories I was too little to remember, there are pictures to remember them by! But what I do remember is my visits to Michigan.
You always made sure I had something to eat for meals (even if we went to the Mark or you made mac and cheese). You also always made sure to make plenty of cookies and other treats for me to have!
I love that you care so much about me, my sister and my cousins. Even though we say and do some pretty crazy things sometimes, we do it with love I promise (and when I say we, I may mean me and Luke). You are a saint for letting our crazy into your door if I'm being honest and for that I thank you.
I thank you for all of the memories we have shared during summers and Christmases, even when you had to watch little kids that sometimes knew how to talk and walk.
I'm sorry I didn't follow in yours or moms footsteps as far as teaching/being with kids, but I have learned a lot from you over the years that I hope to instill in my future children (yes future... it'll be awhile)
Lastly, I just want to say that I love you very much. No matter what, I will always be here for you even though I'm miles away. The phone will continue to work both ways though, so don't feel afraid to call, I promise I will pick up!
