A Letter

Dear Grandpa,

I missed you this weekend when we went to visit Grandma. I think you really would have enjoyed my company since I have become so entertaining. Mommy could almost hear you laughing at all the silly things I was doing.

You would have loved being outside with me. Watching me run around, point at the birds and climb the picnic table, chattering all the time. I loved eating your raspberries and I especially loved picking apples off the apple tree. I kept saying “Ap-POLE!” I would eat the whole thing even the core. Grandma said that was just what you used to do.









I also liked wearing your hat. The red one with paint all over it. And then I tried on Grandma's shoes. I haven't learned how to tie them up yet though so that was frustrating.



I also love your cat. I didn't learn to say his name but I called him “Kiddy!”. If no one was watching I'd help him eat his food by putting it into a different bowl for him, bit by bit. He seemed to like this. I also lay right down on the floor next to him and watched him eat. Very interesting!



I miss you Grandpa. I miss your songs and rhymes. I miss sitting on your knee and falling asleep with you.

Everyone else misses you too.

Love,
A
