I remember…
my Dad carrying me into your house in the morning like a sack of potatoes
your smiling face and open arms reaching for me
being held most of the day by your loving embrace
eating donuts dipped in coffee
crushed up graham crackers soaked in milk
eggs over easy on toast
for breakfast
chip dip straight out of the bowl
watching Ryan’s Hope every day and wondering what that was all about
jumping on your bed
hide and seek
running around with the dog across acres and acres of farmland
playing with the fun neighbor kids across the road
anxiously awaiting your youngest son to arrive home from high school to play
road trips with your daughter to A&W Rootbeer to get chili dogs and rootbeer delivered to the car
having you all to myself
your energy even though you had raised 7 kids already
feeling so loved and so safe
laughing, laughing, laughing
and so much love and adoration
You were taken way too soon
I think you would be proud of me
I think we would have been best friends
I miss you and remember you like it was yesterday.
I love you, Grandma.
