Dear Grammy,
I’m just stopping in to say I miss you, and I hope that you’re having a great time in Heaven with Grandpa. It’s been a whole year without you. I’ve taken you leaving pretty hard, because there was still so much you didn’t get a chance to see, like, my senior FFA Banquet, me graduating, or getting to see me walk down the aisle to marry the man of my dreams, or welcome my first child. Our relationship was pretty rocky and hard for most of my life, but we were finally working on it. They always say that it gets better in time, but it’s only gotten harder. I don’t know who I’m going to call when I run out of sugar, or who I’m going to run to when I’ve had a bad day. You were my go to for everything. I hope that you’re proud of who I am becoming.
Thank you for always being there when I needed an ear, or someone to tell me “that boy isn’t worth it”. You were my rock when life threw me a curveball. I can’t wait to see you again one day. Sometimes I sit next to the Dogwood tree in your front yard and talk to you when my days been rough but there’s nothing better than getting a hug from you and hearing you say “it’s gonna be alright kiddo” Or to hear you say “I love you” just one more time.
The holidays aren’t the same without you, no one is there to make the pumpkin pie like you or at Christmas to help me decorate the Christmas trees, or give me a coloring book, pajama pants, and crayons so I could sit in your living room and drink hot chocolate and color you pictures every Sunday afternoon, and just spend time with you. I can’t wait to run up and give you and grandpa the biggest hugs because losing the both of you, meant that I lost two of my biggest fans, and very best friends. I love you so much and miss you more and more each day.
Also, after you left this world our entire family fell apart, we haven’t seen or spoken to My Aunt, Cousins, or Uncle in almost a year, it’s so crazy how you were the glue who held everything together. I wish you could be here and just piece everything back together.
I just want to tell you that I love you, and miss you more and more everyday, and I appreciate everything that you’ve ever done for me.
Love,
Courtney
