I can't believe it's been 19 years.
It feels like it was only yesterday. I miss you terribly. I miss hearing you call me "Dolly" and taking me out early with you Saturday mornings. That was our time. We would listen to Cyndi Lauper and Twisted Sister in the truck. You told me silly stories and jokes and listened to every word I said. I knew I was special to you. You always made me feel special and loved. It doesn't really get easier with time does it? When I let my mind wander to those memories I get such a terrible ache in my heart. I wish you were still here with us. I wish you were there see me graduate, to walk me down the aisle, and I wish you would be able to be here to see the birth of your grandchild. I wish I could have those Saturdays back.
I guess I'll settle for those sweet memories, the time we did have, and knowing I have a special guardian angel to watch over me...

I know there is no words to ease the ache in your heart. I am sorry that a cyber hug is all that I can give.
Sending happy thoughts your way.

Oh Sassy, I'm so sorry. I don't think it ever gets easier. I don't know how anyone is strong enough to endure this but you are. Keep the good memories in your heart and in your mind. That's so important and make sure you tell your baby all about her grandfather so she knows what a good person he was and how much he would have loved her. BIG BIG ((((HUGS))))
