My grandfather sent this to my grandmother Christmas 1952 while he was in the Navy. It might be the most romantic, sweetest thing I have ever read. I cherish this card. I know they are looking down on me and my whole family this lovely holiday. I will meet my soul mate soon, just like my grandparents, I have a feeling they will send him my way the moment I’m not expecting it! Cherish your family and friends like no other, it doesn’t matter how many gifts Santa left under the tree, all that matter is love sweet love! Merry Christmas to YOU!!

It’s been ten long years and I still have yet to recover. I pray you never experience loss like I have but I’m afraid it’s just something we cannot avoid. So, hold on to the ones you love as long as you can and never take a moment for granted. I love you Ma, forever and always. I am a firecracker; staunch, feisty and genuine. These qualities I’ll always attribute to you. miss you.  (Taken with instagram)
