20 Mondays since our world was rocked to its core. I just can't believe it still. 

I miss you doesn't even begin to describe the emptiness you left behind. 

I can't wait to see you again.....not soon enough. I love you so much my Lucybug. 

♥Mama

You were 2..... we took you on a trip to Myrtle Beach with Granny and Granddaddy. You loved the beach. 

We decided to take you to the alligator farm so you could see all the animals, which you loved!! It was time for the caretakers to feed the BIG alligator. I was holding you and we both were watching through the glass to get a peek at this huge creature. When the alligator finally jumped up out of the water and grabbed his treat, it scared you! You climbed all over me lol!! But you wanted to see it again! You were always so silly! 

I can still hear that sweet giggle!!

Every time I think of you, the first memory that pops in my head was the first time we ever met. We would always text and talk on the phone 24/7 but when we first saw each other in person at Biltmore Park you came running up to me and gave me the biggest hug and all I remember was your infectious smile, and how our outfits and shoes were pretty much the same, we had the same middle name and you always called me your twin after that. I still wait on texts to tell me you miss me or to walk in Ingles and see your smiling face waving at me across the store. You were the most beautiful girl with the most beautiful heart. There’s not a day that goes by I don’t think of you. This has been tough, but knowing I’ll get to see you again makes it so much easier! Can’t wait for eternal hugs in heaven! I miss and love you so much sweet girl! 

I loved when you would come to my house and hang out. We would have so much fun walking to the park, watching funny videos, and creating our own dances. I absolutely loved coming up with dances with you in my drive way! We would always have so much fun. I didn’t get the chance to say goodbye. But you have such a sweet soul and I think about your every single day and I will forever miss you. But don’t worry because some day I’ll be in heaven and we will be reunited! Give Isaiah a hug for me sweet lexie

lex a couple of months before you passed,  you came into chick-fil-a and said that you missed me and that we need to hang out:)  we never got the chance but i miss you so much! I found all the pictures from elementary school. Fly high,  i love and miss you so much! 

I remember when you were 10 years old and you found out you were becoming a big sister again. The love you had for your brothers and sister was endless. I am so glad God put you into our lives because you made the world a better place . Your mama and daddy are truly blessed that they got to be your parents. Ryan(Mootie), Roen and Jacob couldn't have had a better sister. I am so grateful I got to be your aunt and although I didn't get to see you a lot, I know my life is better because you were a part of it. You are gone too soon but always know that you were loved and now you are with Jesus and together you will watch over those who loved you as you loved them. Until we meet again, RIP sweet angel!!!!

Love always

Every time I think of you I think about getting my wisdom teeth out. The Friday night it happened you wanted to come over and see me. The family was leaving to go to Brie’s birthday dinner. Mom said maybe tomorrow because I was sleeping off and on and she wanted me to rest. Saturday came around and you asked if you could come over. I said yes and you offered to bring me a smoothie. I had just cut dairy out of my diet so you brought me a slushy from Sonic instead. We ate mashed potatoes together and watched TV (I can’t evenremember what we were watching). At the time you were working at the Wing and asked if I would do your hair before you went to work. We ended up falling asleep and napping for a few hours. I woke up before you and took a picture of your sweet self snuggled up next to me. You are and forever will be my favorite snuggle buddy (even when I woke up in the middle of the night to you snoring in my ear on top of me). I look back on that picture I took and look a little further up in my camera roll and see pictures and videos from the Thursday night before I got my wisdom teeth out. “My last meal” we called it. You came over for me to cut your hair...I cut it “too short”...you stayed and ate pork chops with me and then we went to my room to watch TikTok videos together. We laughed until we cried and couldn’t catch our breath. I have videos of us laughing and crying and dancing to “Summer Nights”. I can’t listen to that song without crying my eyes out. I miss you Lex. Every single day. I wait for you to send me a text asking me to bring you food. I wait for you to send me a text asking me to cut your hair. Every day is a struggle without you. Everything I do...I do for you....my sweet sweet guardian angel. I love you -Kay

I moved away before you were born. I was home (in Asheville) for a visit and you were born while I was there. That meant a lot to me because I felt like I missed out on so much, but not that. getting to see your precious newborn face was a special treat to me.

I was home (in Asheville)  for the holidays and my Niece Jenna was there and was about 3 months old. She was in her baby seat with a binky in her mouth. You were around 18 months old and your binky had been taken away. You reached over and took the one right out of Jenna’s mouth as you had needs…Binky needs, and they needed to be met. Thinking about that always makes me smile. You were so adorable!

I believe this was the last time I saw you in person. You were 8 years old and I was home (in Asheville) for the holidays. We all met up at J & S. I was afraid you might not remember me, but you did. You walked in with your nails done and were texting on a cell phone. I wanted to scream “NO, DON’T LET HER GROW UP!” But somehow, I kept my wits about me and kept my mouth shut and spared you the embarrassment of 1 crazy aunt that day.

I do wish there had been more!

Just a little over two months before the Lord called you home, I got to hug you and see that sweet smile on your face! I got to watch you play with Oakleigh! you kept coming back to our table! I loved every second of it. You were always so good with little ones and I know you were the best sister ever to your brothers and sister! I always loved when I got to run into you  

I have so many memories of you. I can remember you riding in the back seat of my Acura singing and dancing to “Yeah” by Usher, you were only 2 years old! You called me Granda......I can close my eyes and see your face and hear you saying it. 

I remember all the times you stayed the night with me and you would always have to sleep in the bed right beside me....giving me about an inch of the bed lol! 

I was privileged with being able to watch you grow into an amazing young woman. You were always so full of life. You made any room light up. 

You loved going to eat Chinese food. I remember my dad, aka Philly, squirting a lemon at the table and it getting in your eye. You were not happy! But you loved your noodles and you called them nooodaaassss! 

I miss you so much sweet girl....what I wouldn’t give to see that smile or hear that giggle again. But I know you are dancing away in Heaven and having a great time! You will always be in my heart! Love you soo much Lexie

Love Granda

Oh the sweet memories... Although I have not lived there in the best childhood years you had, I will never forget the times I was there!  Mooties 2nd birthday party..you and Sky bug playing hide and seek, and at the pool doing back flips off the side. All I wanted to do was make sure you and Jake had fun while Mom was busy with your little brothers. And the last memory I have is when I visited two years ago and me and Mom picked you up from work (Ingles) and took you back to Dad's so you could get ready for a big night with friends at the fair! Most missed memories with your Mom btw..I wish we had more time with you sweet girl! You'll be forever missed and loved!

I'll never forget becoming an aunt for the first time and I just loved that little baby so much! She was the most beautiful child with brown curls and big stunning blue eyes. Some of my most find memories of her was when she was probably 3 and she would shoot her little fist in the air and say "pight the bee!!" and when she was 5 and her dad came by to get her and she got in the truck and started head banging and dancing to lynard skynard I believe!! She loves animals and was so kind to everyone she met. She is gone too soon but we will be forever reunited with her in a perfect heaven! Until then, I know she's dancing with Jesus!!
