Jennifer, my sweet, sweet baby girl. I know you are nearly grown now, you will soon be 17 years old. I can hardly believe the years that have gone by and time has left us apart. You have been gone for so long, I know it must be hard for you to remember how close we were. I am making all kinds of files and leaving them behind for you and Christy and Kelly. Aunt Sheree is going to make sure that you get them, in case I am gone when you finally return.
Most of the things that I want to leave you are also posted on the MeMa site I built for you girls. I have been building that site since 2004. I try to keep everything that is going on in your family updated there so when you finally get to read it, you will know as much about your family as I can possibly tell you.
I would give my eye teeth to be with you as you are going through your very sweet teens. We have been cheated out of so much, and I hate that for you and your Daddy and me. No one will ever know how hard this has been on me, but it will be all worth it if I can be with you before the Lord calls me home.
You are now and have been since the day you was born, my first grandchild and the apple of my eye.
I told you the day you was born, we were gonna need each other, and I still believe that with all my heart. I am here baby, and I always will be.
Jennifer, reach way down deep and see if you can remember the love we had for each other. I still love you and I believe that the bond we had is still there. I pray one day you will feel it too. It is the most wonderful feeling to know that you are loved as much as I love you, and I still feel the love you had for me.
As for me I do not love one grandchild anymore than another, but there is always something very connected between a grandmother and her first grandchild. Jennifer, baby no one can take that from us, no one! |
