For a friend of mine, who became grandma for the first time this week :)

They didn't tell me I would melt The very second that I held You in my loving arms  You, so infinitely small Oh little one, oh little doll My tears flow free and warm I diminish, shrivel and I shrink My tears flow, I try to blink. Bundle of pure love, Cocooned pup against my neck Oh little one, oh tiny fleck No bigger than my glove  *** I love you unconditionally Always be my little baby. I'll forever be your grandma And you my lovely Luna. *** February 18, 2017

Morning Darren. I didn't know what I would be reading before turning the page. This is beautiful. Grandmothers are so special and they are irreplaceable. I had the best grandmother in the world. I'm certain your friend treasures this entry for her. You have a big heart. Beautifully expressed and so true also. Well done entirely. Have a grand morning.

She was completely delighted :) It made her cry and smile the same time. I have seen a picture of Luna, and she is beautiful. Thank you for sharing how importand your grandmother was to you. Have a wonderful day, Lisa.
