Ya... I wear my shirt like that all the time...

Today I miss my beautiful Emma.

I want to look into those blue eyes and

tell you the stories of our lives.

I want you to know of my love for you,

and that I am your grandma, by choice,

because I know I knew you in heaven.

I said, "I want that one Heavenly Father"

and he said - oh but she is a special one...

and I said, "I already know that".

Today I miss my handsome Andy.

When I talked to him early this morning he

asked me if he could have some juice.

(I'm 3 states away) I said, "I'll be right

there to make some for you!"  Then he

waved goodbye to the phone to me.

I want to read you the, "There's a monster at

the end of this book" book - and use all of my

voices.  Then I would use my Cookie Monster Voice

and we would make cookies.  We would never bake

them though - because we would just eat the cookie dough.

I miss you today because we dress the same.

I always wear my shirt like this... it's a strange

genetic disorder we have.  When I think of

you being the first Grandchild - I want YOU to

tell me the stories of who else is up there waiting

to come to earth.  I want to know about Ashley

and Mike's kids, Mandy and Ryan's kids, and

actually - all about Ryan's cute wife here on earth and

their kids waiting in heaven.  I know you know!

We always said that Uncle Ryan H came last to

the earth because he was the one that said - I'll wait,

just don't forget I'm here!  I believe that heaven

wept when you came... because no one can make

the sound of a garbage truck like you can.

I love my grandkids,

those here,

and those to come.

Oh Happy Day...
