Great Grandmother's Girl

Dear Emma,

I want you to know how special and dear you are to your great grandmother.  She asks about you every time I talk to her and she always says, "She is such a sweet girl."  

Great grandmother was so pleased you wanted to visit her this summer.  She was especially pleased that you liked playing Parcheesi as that is her favorite game.


She told me after you left that "I don't know why that child likes me, but I'm sure glad she does."

Great grandmother will be 88 on January 11th.  She and your cousin Henry share a birthday.  Great grandmother is blind in her left eye and has limited vision in her right eye.  She is very independent like you and very determined to live on her own. 

She was complaining about not being able to see very well and you gave her a big hug and said, "You might not be able to see very well but at least you are alive." 

You made me so pleased when you hugged her and said, "Great grandmother I like you very much."  I don't know if my mother heard that but I will never forget the love and kindness you showed her.

Thank you for wrapping her Christmas gifts for her to open at Christmas.  She really loves to see you dressed up in your new princess dress with a tiara.  You also made her a special Christmas card that she kept.

You make my Mom very happy to have such a sweet and loving great-granddaughter.  Thank you for taking the time to get to know my Momma and for loving her.

Poppa and I love you and pray for you every single day.
