Dear granny

It’s been eleven years and I miss you so much. I remember we talked about how we would go shopping for my prom dress while I was still in elementary. We didn’t get to do those things because on feb sixth 2008, you became an angel. For years it took me a long time to get over you leaving. I was lost because at church they tell us to pray for people to get healed so when that didn’t happen my heart was broken. They didn’t include if the person wanted to go to heaven then let them go. I honestly couldn’t let go. I was in fifth grade, my parents were getting divorced. My world had taken a wild turn. I would’ve liked for you to be here. I had promised to take care of you but I couldn’t keep that promise. I am now 22 and I still cry from missing you, but I know you’re not in pain anymore so I would not want you to be suffering either. I know you’ll be watching over me and be there in spirit at my wedding and have children (whenever that day comes). Thank you for all the good times. I love you.
