She would take me on adventures and I developed a love of garage sales. I have so much to say but what means the most is, She saw the good in me and loved me when I couldn't. I'm happy her last visit she finally got to see her wish. That I found a good man ( she always asked about my love life) and she got to see Morgan Mike and I as a family. I love my grandma so much. She will always be in my heart and mind. She has since I was a little girl. “
