Our beach trips
September 27, 2018

you used to take me to the beach at least twice a month and I’d always get to take someone or it would just be me and you. Man those trips were fun. We’d go until we couldn’t go anymore. Or when you’d pick me up from school early and take me to the state fair every single day the fair was in town:) oh the memories that flood in. Ed made sure to shut me out of your life and out of papas before he passed away but I’m thankful for it! Had he not shit me out I would of had to watch you both suffer and become a shell of the people y’all once were. I’m glad that dang near every memory that floods in are all good! I don’t remember you being sick EVER! Other than when you broke your hips which he somehow managed to say was my fault. I missed for so many years and I’ve often cried myself to sleep wanting to talk to my grandma as I did every single day for 26 years. I love you so much grandma and I know without a doubt your looking down on me proud of the woman, mother, wife, and grandma that I am.
I love and miss you

although I’ve missed you for over 6 years it still hurts to hear the news. Ed took you away so many years ago and wouldn’t let me see you or even speak to you so you probably didn’t know that I myself am a grandma now, or that your grandson will graduate early in December, or that I’m having a major surgery in October, or than nana passed away in August. There’s lots of things we didn’t get to talk about and things that we’ve missed. Well now you know it all! You see! You can now see everything that happened, and you can see that I called and called and called and was told not to call back that I was harassing him. Now you know that I had a stroke when he took you away and wouldn’t let me see you or talk to you, now you know everything that’s was said was lies. I’m glad that now you can see the truth. I’m glad that how you are safe and out of harms way. I’m so happy that you have a new body and your sitting next to papas side again! And I love the pic grandma, that’s my baby boy dave when he was a little bitty baby and now he’s 17, driving, and about to graduate!! Wow!! I sure wished we could catch up face to face in person but I guess I’ll have to settle for a message. I love you grandma and miss you alway
