Can you see me?

niallprideaux

It’s been a year Grandma.

I really really miss you.

Mummy says you’re safe now, she calls you Angel.

I tried your favourite coffee today, but I don’t really like it. It tasted ewwie.

I learned to ride a bike this summer! And I can ride it without training wheels!

Can you see me?  

 

It’s been five years, Grandma.

I’m in Year 6 now.

I really like art, but I’d do anything instead of sport.

I catch Dad still crying on your birthday, even though he won’t tell me why.

Mum lets me spray my bed with your perfume… it just reminds me of you.

Can you see me?   I

 

t’s been 10 years, Grandma.

I started high school.

Even though i didn’t do well, I got into College!

(I have my parents to thank for the push)

I’m thinking about Universities, now… but I’m scared…

I know you’ll be there when I stand at the altar, and holding my first child... I

hope you know you’re my Angel.

Can you see me?  

 

Merry Christmas, Grandma.

      I took inspiration from that and rewrote it for my grandma 🙂

      A nice tribute to your Grandma! She will always be with you in your heart, and yes, I do believe she can see you too!
      Happy Holidays!
