Dear nan,
It’s nearly been two years since you passed away but it feels so much longer. When you died I just wasn’t expecting it I never got to say goodbye which still makes me so sad. I never got to tell you how much I loved you and how much you meant to me. My only nan.
As a youngster we had so much fun together, do you remember the time I ran round your living room washing everyone’s legs with the toilet brush .. with toilet water! I’m sure you howled with laughed as did mum & grandad.
We went on holidays together and we went in the sea, I’m not sure you enjoyed that bit! You were my friend not just my nan, I’d come to you to talk about stuff and cry with you. When my mum had her stroke I moved in, not for the first time! You told me it would be ok, you held me tight.
You taught me to bake cakes and cookies too thank god you did nan because mum wasn’t a baker! Do you remember her rock cakes nan? Me and you sat for hours talking about life, politics, the olden days. So many great memories. You tried to teach me to knit but I wasn’t up to the job!
You followed us where ever we went you moved to, I knew you & grandad were never far behind. When I left home I felt sad I’d not have you so close but I was glad you and mum were still close.
Nan I wish you was still here, to pass on your wisdom to tell me it’ll be ok, to find me a kick to get my sh*t together because you were good at.
I hope I made you proud and I hope you knew how much I loved you then and still do. I miss you so much nan I wish we could just have one more chat about life although I’m guessing you’d tell me what I already know.
I love you so much nan, take care of each other in heaven until we meet again one day
Vicky xx
