Good Morning!

Just sending you lots of love 💗.  Wish you were here.  Driving up to Wilmington today to get our car serviced.  While it’s being fixed Grandpa and I plan to walk over to Bitty and Beau’s, a coffee shop operated by people with disabilities.  They do a great job and we like to support their efforts.
Take care and love you 😍 with every bone in my body.  I love all my grandchildren to the moon and back.  You are all precious to me.  Well bye for now, Grammie 703-577-5746

Looking at old photos

Hi Honey,

Do you remember when this photo was taken?  I drove down to Naples for a couple weeks and we were together at Auntie DDe’s house.  Žan was like out of control excited that you were there to play so you leaned over, got face to face with him and settled him down so he played nicely.  They just love you to pieces, little girl. Someday they will get to know you again and you can hang out together.  

When I look at this picture, my heart is happy and sad because we can’t have fun times anymore but I have a great memory and I live on that.  I think of you everyday and pray that you are safe.  I have so much to ask you about......your friends and what they’re like, your favorite food, where you go to school, the sport you like best, your best subject in school, your favorite teacher, your favorite color, do you play an instrument and on and on.  You talk and I’ll listen!!

Well, it’s late now and I’m tired so I’ll bid you a good night sweetie. 

Love you to the moon and back.....Grammie (703.577..5746)

Grammie and the boys

Hi there Emma G!

I just came across these fun images of Grammie and boys and thought to share. 

We are always wondering how you are and keeping you close in our hearts with prayers of protection.

May we all play together again!

Sending love, Auntie DDé

We missed you playing in the ocean!

Hi Emma G!

Auntie DDe and the boys went to Grammie and Grandpa's for two weeks...so I went too for a little while! We played in the pool and Taj nearly killed Grandpa with his golf cart driving! They ran off the road -- Grandpa didn't care but Grammie did! We played in the ocean one day. Zan and Taj are becoming better swimmers, more confident in their skills. They were boogie boarding for hours. We missed you. A lot. We will have fun again someday! Call or text anytime. Really, anytime. 510.374.8442

Love,
Auntie Jo

Summertime! July 2020

Auntie Jo, Grandpa and Taj playing in the Atlantic Ocean. 

We will all play again, Emma Grace! 💓

Hey there little lady!

For the past two weeks, the boys and I were visiting Grammie and Grandpa in NC. Auntie Jo flew in, as well, for a long weekend. You may have been far in miles, but you were there with us in spirit, in our thoughts, and in our hearts. 💕

This photo of you was in my direct view daily from all angles in the room we stayed.

Do you remember when this was taken? We have a few of these beautiful shots of you. 

Grammie, Auntie Jo and I have them on our walls showcased perfectly.

I have lain in bed many of sleepless nights over the past five years wondering about and praying for your safety. With every fiber of my being, I visualize and have every intention in seeing that you have everything that you need for a beautiful life, EG. Plenty of fun and friends, nutritious food, peaceful moments, lots of music, excellent education and family is how I foresee your days spent. When your daddy passed on, I realized just how precious life truly is and you are worthy of every precious tid bit life offers.

May you be blessed and protected always. 

You are a beautiful, intelligent and strong girl!

With love, Auntie DDé, Žan, Taj 💟

Hi Sweetpea

Emma Grace, we missed your presence the past two weeks because we were all together here at the house.  Auntie DDe’, Auntie Jo, Žan, Taj, Grandpa and I went to the beach, the pool and played.  Missing was your daddy and you.  Now we know your daddy is safe and okay in Heaven but we needed you here to make our family complete once again.  I hope that happens soon.  We can love and protect you while your mother gets medical help.  I think you know she needs it.
I have lots of wishes and prayers for my grandchildren.  One of them is a happy life, another is to be well adjusted to life around you and to serve others in need, to bloom like a beautiful flower with friends around you that you will remember forever.  I wish you to be successful in whatever you do in life.  We will always have some problems but that’s what loving families do.  We help each other through it.  I can’t wait to sit down and talk to you, to hear your voice once again and answer any questions you have.  I will always be honest with you.  I’ve always been! Keep yourself safe and don’t let anyone bully you.  You are strong, you are good and you are loved by your Daddy’s family.
We’re waiting for you!
Love you to the moon and back,  your Grammie 703-577-5746.  Mpandbud@gmail.com

The Birthday Boy

This is your daddy.  He was so devoted to you so throw him a kiss every time you see his picture say “I love you Daddy”
Your Grammie

Happy Birthday Daddy

Emma Grace, your daddy would have turned 43 years old. He was born on July 8, 1977 and what a cute baby he was. He grew up to be a wonderful father and helped so many people.  He will always stay young because where he is now, I know he is healthy and happy.  He is also very concerned about you.  We all are and I think you know why so don’t be afraid to speak up.  Go to an adult that you know you can trust.  Not your Mom or Scott.  We love you and want only the very best for you.  You have a bright future Emma Grace.  What your daddy left you is yours, not anyone else’s.
Love you Emma, Your loving Grammie. (703)577-5746.  Mpandbud@gmail.com
