Here she is. All the way from Georgia...
She is Kristy, my Sandy's daughter. We lost her mom and my eldest daughter two years ago in February and it seems like yesterday.
She brought me love, smiles and tears..
We talked about things that were funny and we talked about her mother and we cried.
She is the eldest of my 14 grandchildren and the mother of my first grandson, Jaden and later a little granddaughter, Katie.
We were in hallway in our pajama's when she was trying to show me how to take a "selfie"..didn't work of course. :)
I hated to see her go back to Georgia.
I could not have a sweeter or more loving or more understanding granddaughter..
I have six granddaughters and all are as loving as Kristy.
Am I lucky...or what.?
She was going to help me with the Fairy Garden but we got distracted.
You can see her comment under "Two Kiddo's"on my last post.
She is 3000 miles away from me..but right in my heart.
Love,
Mona
How very sweet . . . is she going to be visiting for awhile?

Your granddaughter is a beautiful woman, just like her grandma. I'm sure the memories you shared were bittersweet, but oh, what a gift too! You have been through much in your life, but your love for your family shows in everything you post!
