My first my only grandson...my lil pumpkin.. I will hold on and remember how i felt when I first saw you in your mothers womb, I was so happy.. My boy was on his way, and when I saw you all I could do is steal kisses after kisses when know one was looking (sorry for crying on you, but as you learned Nana is a cry baby shhh& the sad part is the older I get the worst I get).. I wonder how it would have been to see you laugh, play, run, even cry .I loved your lil scent you smelled so sweet. I long to see you my heart has never experienced a pain like this I never knew this kind of hurt in my life..I'm trying to stop the tears so I can finish this its so important that you know how much you are missed & loved omg you have such loving parents, your mother is so soft spoken, she's a great mom, we love you... when God finish molding me into what he want me to be I'll see you again..until then let Jedidiah teach you some signs he's real good at it lol... Love you my pumpkin.. I love you more than words Nana..
