| On the way down to reunite with my granddaughter | | | | want to do in life, do you remember anything we use |
| I had time to think about all the good times we had | | | | to do, and do you remember me? |
| together when she was a little girl. I hoped she had | | | | My son was already at the place we were meeting. I |
| that Doll house I got for her on her 4th birthday. I | | | | am finally here, but having a hard time finding him. |
| understood it has been 13 years and they might have | | | | You see my son races cars as a hobby and does his |
| gotten rid of it, but it was a project I wanted to | | | | own mechanics. So we all thought we would meet |
| share with her, putting in all the furnishing in this big | | | | where we can all enjoy the fresh air. OK I found him, |
| doll house and having something she can say her | | | | darn she is not there yet, but is on her way. My son |
| grandma and her did together. I also smiled, thinking | | | | has 2 boys and they are there to meet their older |
| about the time we got her a Barbie jeep for her 5th | | | | sister and are very excited. |
| birthday and how she was tearing around the yard, | | | | He just got the call and told me to follow him down |
| her great grandpa was standing out there smiling and | | | | to get her at the gate. I followed and was looking |
| watching her play. All of a sudden she went right to | | | | and thinking what will I say first? Then she caught |
| her great grandpa on full throttle and stopped within | | | | my eye! I knew it was her! My son said stay here at |
| inches of his legs, boy did he turn white, and she | | | | the gate and I will get her. I waited and they came |
| then giggled and said Hi Poppo! We all laughed so hard | | | | towards me and she embraced her dad, then he said |
| that tears were coming out of our eyes. I knew | | | | to her I have a surprise. She looked at him, smiled |
| then she was just like me, a little speed demon! I | | | | and said what dad? He then turned her around and |
| remember the day that awful cat attacked her; she | | | | said your grandma. I held open my arms and tears |
| had so many stitches on that beautiful face. When I | | | | flowed out, she looked at me and ran into my arms |
| saw her after the whole ordeal, she told me that she | | | | and we both said how much we missed each other. |
| did not cry and she was a big girl. I remember when | | | | We could not quit hugging and crying, all my thoughts |
| she would come up on the weekends to my place in | | | | disappeared and all I could think about was holding |
| the mountains and play in the old fort that the kids | | | | her and telling her how much I love her and how |
| that use to live there built. We had so much fun and | | | | happy my heart was that we were holding each |
| we were so close back then! | | | | other once again. |
| Then the last time I saw her until today was 13 | | | | The boys were so excited they could not wait |
| years ago when my son was in a bad wreck and I | | | | where we were all congregated. They came down to |
| asked her mother to please bring her to see my son. | | | | meet us half way and ran to dad; the oldest boy |
| I did not know that it would be the last hug and kiss | | | | went up to her and said, so you are my sister huh? |
| I would get for all those years. Today is a new day | | | | You are cute. My son then introduced the boys to |
| and I do not know what to do first! Should I hug her, | | | | her. The littlest went to her and said hug please. |
| and then give her a big kiss? Should I just wait and | | | | For the rest of the day we all were smiling so big |
| see if she wants that hug? I have seen pictures of | | | | and tears of joy just came out of nowhere. All of us |
| her and boy is she beautiful! But that just shows me | | | | know and are happy that our oldest is now home! I |
| her beauty not who she is. I have longed for this | | | | also look forward to furnishing that Doll House with |
