Dear Grandma,

Dear Grandma,

I am very mad at you for leaving this week. Every day I wake up and walk into your room and you're not there. Don't you remember that I'm supposed to be your favorite?

I cried for you for 3 hours at naptime yesterday. It's just not the same when Mom reads me Little Quack. And she doesn't lay by me as long as you would.

I want you to come back. Mom doesn't laugh at me as much as you did when I swing my hips and strut my stuff around town. She called me her girl yesterday, but I corrected her and told her I'm Grandma's girl.

I hope Carter is having fun with you. Can you please stop playing with him and call me? I pick up Mom's phone to talk to you, but you don't talk back.

I miss you.

-Lydia

That almost makes me cry because when my mom is not around my Isabelle misses her terribly. Last week she told me she wanted to move to Las Vegas so we all could live with Grandma (& Grandpa). Not just near them, WITH THEM!!

It always takes my kids about a week or two to start appreciating me again after their dear Grandma has left, too.

We just returned from a really short trip to CA and my boys are missing Grandma too. I can't make them feel as special as she does. Every "Grandma or Grandpa" the see in the store Dallin says Hi.

Grandma are great!!
