Dear Grandma L,
I kind of regret picking one letter per day to do for an entire year. I never know who to write to next because I just want to write to everyone. Yours is long overdue, but alas it has arrived. This letter really could go on forever. I could tell you how thankful I am for you raising the best family I have, for keeping them close together and for creating such wonderful children of yours. I could also thank you for caring about my and your other grandchildrens' success and happiness in life. Who gets a grandmother who is so involved in ones life such as you? I'm truly blessed.
Grandma, if there isn't one thing I haven't learned from you it's that love can conquer anything. I watch you take care of Grandpa every single day and love him with all your heart and it makes me want to be just like you when I get older. You really are amazing to everyone around you and I don't know if you actually know how much you touch everyone's lives that you come into. I have the most hip grandma out there, my friends always asking if you're actually my grandma on facebook who comments on my pictures and statuses. I tell them "Yep that's her. She's pretty good at technology and keeping up." And they're all amazed, saying that their grandmothers would never be able to figure out facebook. Needless to say I've got a pretty cool grandma.
I really miss coming out to the farm frequently and having a home cooked meal like one of yours. I miss sitting in your living room and looking out the windows at all the birds and flowers that surround your home. I miss just sitting over the best cup of tea with a tasty piece of cake and talking with you. I do wish I lived closer to spend more time with you and grandpa, but I'm also glad that you support me in all my decisions and are there offering help whenever I need it. I can't thank you enough for that. Your support is overwhelming and I'm so thankful to have you and grandpa in my life.
I look forward to spending Christmas day with you and the family. I don't get to see you guys enough during the time I'm here, but the times I do get I cherish them and will remember them when I go back East.
I love you so much.
Sincerely,
Yvette
