DEAR GRANDSON

 

It’s hard to explain just how much I love you. I  think I love you more than anyone else. I was so excited when you were born. You were born during the SARS scare. You were born during Passover. When you were born your NANA wa on vacation. She wasn’t able to hold you for a few weeks. I remember sometimes being jealous that you had another grandmother but when I saw her hold you for the first time I knew that it would be ok. We would both share you and LOVE you to death.
I stayed with you most of the first few weeks as MOMMY wanted help. It was my privilege to live in and help. You cried a lot and it took a lot of patience to take care of you. But of course we all did!!!! We don’t regret it for a minute. You were and still are our pride and joy. I feel such a DEEP bond with you. I live for the Thursdays that we spend together. When you were small you would spend most of the day here. Now that you’re older I only get to pick you up after camp and/or school.
I am always sad when I think of your Mommy and Daddy’s divorce. I feel sad that you live with one parent one week and the other the next week. Maybe it’s not so hard for you. I wouldn’t ask. There is nothing we can change. I hope you will be ok. My heart breaks for you but I know that it is different for you. How? I don’t know and never will.
Anyhow my dear sweet little boy, know that I love you and always will. I will always be here for you no matter what happens.
My dream is to take you to Israel. There are so many things I would like to do with you but I am NOT your parent. I would also have to take my new grandchildren. I wouldn’t mind but there is the added expense and the added time needed.
So my precious grandson know that I am always here for you. I will always love you and will alays stick by you. If you ever need anything anything at all just call.

My parents love the children, too. My older son adores his Nana. You can see it in his eyes when he is talking with her. It is a wonderful relationship to watch when it is going well.

I second that you make a copy of this and give it to him one day when he is older. Grandkids are the best! I’m constantly amazed by them.

aw….I love all the letters you wrote, to your grandson and your two sons. They are all very blessed to have you, and you are to have them. And you are a really wonderful woman, to love your two “step-grandkids” and include them in things, as if they had been yours all along. hugs, Nicky

have you ever been to israel before? someday i too would like to go to israel. israel…palestine…..i personally like to call it the -land of brothers & sisters- cuz it i think it’s getting out of hand that everyone is fighting over the land.
