What a special day it is! The day my sweet angel was brought into this world. The day that we are able to celebrate her life, and yet this year on July 25th something was missing.
You see Mollye and my grandmother share that day in common. They were birthday buddies.
I remember going into the doctor's office and trying to decide if I would be induced or not. I had talked myself out of it with one exception-if he offered to do it on my grandmother's birthday. Sure enough that was the first date he offered up, and now while I would never be induced again I am glad that we went ahead with that date! I love that although my grandmother is no longer here to share in that day; Mollye and her will always be part of each other especially on July 25th each year. Nana, we miss you and love you very much!
This is a picture of my grandmother and Mollye when she was very young. Mollye, very few people love you the way this lady did. You were all she talked about for the last year of her life!
The quote reads: "God gave me the nicest gift of all when he gave me you. My first great granddaughter to share a birthday with: what a beautiful gift!"
This was taken straight from a book that she wrote Mollye on July 25, 2009.
So little tears are in the corners of my eyes.
ReplyDeleteJust another testament to the power of words. The remain here long after you are gone.
So glad Nana loved them!
