Papa's 1 year anniversary

It was hard seeing you go so suddenly when I had thought you would still be here for just a few more years... but it's ok though.. I'm staying strong and I'm glad I'm at the age I am where I can understand why you had to leave and that your'e no longer in pain. Your'e freed from the pain you suffered for years and I am happy to no longer hear about one of the most inspirational and loving people in my life in so much pain, You fullfilled your life to the fullest and finished the job you were given to accomplish on earth and I believe one of the jobs were to make a beautiful and loving family that keeps growing every time you blink, I am so blessed to be your'e daughter's daughter and to have the experience of a life time to be your'e loving grandaughter. Yes I miss you dearly and I know you are gone but it doesn't feel like it... because you are and always will be in my heart taking up most of the space my heart provides so you can protect me from the boys hahah. You have taught me so many life lessons and others like the time my mom and I came to visit you and grandma and we all went to the little zoo in the park and you told me that a donkey is also called a Jackass and oh boy you were proud to have taught youre young innocent granddaughter that word and now when I look back on that memory that is filled with a bunch of other vibrant memories you and I have created, I laugh. Remeber that time you took me to your'e water cooler and gave me a class of completely clean filtered water haha you would think that water wouldn't be such a big deal until you saw my mom's face haha. I never forget the calls we used to have and how you would sneakingly bring up " do you have a boyfriend yet?" into the calm conversations we would carry on, and how I would giggle to the question and say no not yet well oh my papa you would be proud of me because I found a good one I mean we arent dating officialy because hes not ready but thats ok I have a big heart and I'm wait but boy papa you would love him!! he treats every girl with a huge amount of kindness and is very active and loves family and dogs of course, his names Mitchell and he's a pro at Hockey!!!. You Know you used to tag along to dad and guckie's conversations about my very first date and how all of you will sit in the back seat of his car I mean its not going to happen where I bring you guys along haha even though you wouldn't be able to sit in the back but you would have a front row seat right in my heart, how does that sound? it sounds pretty good to me. I still look back at that photo that was taken of us where you were teaching little little me how to play your beautiful organ piano and the reason I look back at that photo is because even though I was so small and didn't have a clue what you were doing with your hands on long white sticks and how it was making music it inspired me to actually have a huge love in my life for playing the piano because even music can express what words can,t and I love that even one song that took months to make can tug at a thousand strings in your'e heart. You always took me on walks to the park even though you were getting older and was getting sore you didnt care because you wanted me to see what life can provide. I love you so much and you will never leave my heart

Love: Sarah
