You are so beautiful, inside and out.

Hi Emma, I hope this day finds you happy and safe. How has your summer been for you? Did you visit your grandfather in Minnesota? Probably a little cooler up there anyway. Grandpa Bud and I are still staying close to home as the numbers of Covid patients rise. I am throwing my cares to the wind though and coming to Naples for a month again. Might as well be there as here in NC. Temperatures are nearly the same. Zan and Taj have started school and adjusting to being back in the classroom. Their schools are not far from you, you know. We miss you and want you back and don't understand how a mother can keep her child away from loving family members that love her.
Do you remember Mr. Buddy, our neighbor next door? Well he's 93 years old now and confused so he doesn't live next to us anymore. He can't live alone. He is living in an assisted living facility so nurses and helpers can care for him when needed. Do you remember going over to his house and getting 4th of July decorations for our golf cart for the parade on July 4th? You and Mr. Buddy's great great grandson, Jordan, played and twirled around our yard with sparklers . You were like a ballerina with your long hair and your sundress floating as the sun went down that night. We were so proud of you and the polite happy little girl you were. You were so easy to love and hang around with. We will again, don't worry. It will be an adjustment but love conquers all fears. Love and faith. I don't know what I would do without my faith in God. I pray God is keeping you safe where you are living. I pray for your mother too, for her courage to be a good mother and to be healthy. Healthy in body, mind and spirit.
Well, my dear, that's all for today. You are always on our minds and in our hearts. Always.
Love you,
Grammie
