Thank you Mimi


Thank you Mimi for making me eat my carrots when I was little.

Thank you for the homemade cookies that arrived in my mailbox every Christmas.

Thank you for the beautiful handmade stockings that you spent many hours stiching for me, my sisters and my babies.

Thank you for letting Lacey and I dress up in your costume jewelry and pretend to be princesses.

Thank you for loving me, all of the hugs and loving support you have given me over the past 31 years of my life.

Thank you for holding that very special, irreplaceable spot in my heart.

I love you Mimi and I miss you already. I know that you are in a very special place and one fine day I will hug my sweet Mims again.
