Dear Grandma

Thank you for everything you have done for me. I appreciate you for loving me and taking care of me.

I loved when we used to stay up late watching True Crime shows, or watching all the Twilight movies, seeing you so into it even thought I did not understand them at the time, I loved when we would sneak into the kitchen early in the morning to make marmalade sandwiches trying not to get caught. Loved when we used to take Star out on her walks together and you would just let me talk about random stuff we heard or saw that day. Or when you would still try and cook me food knowing your legs were hurting. I love everything about you grandma, and the way you are so determined and ready for anything that comes your way. You have taught me many things over the years, and I thank you for that I love you always Grandma. Troi.
