O Baby it cetainly has been a very long time since Grandmommy wrote to you. Do you want my excuse? It really is just an excuse. Just before Thanksgiving your Mommy and Daddy were talking about moving to Orlando or Tampa. That meant I wasn't going to get to see you very much anymore. I cried and cried like the baby you are! If I looked at you or I thought about you I cried. I was so sad that I wasn't going to get to see all of those firsts. I couldn't begin to think about what my life would be like without you. My friends looked at me like I was crazy. They said that is what children and grandchildren do; they move away! They just didn't understand! You are like my own child. I didn't love my children any more than I love you. I love you in such a special way because you came from one of my precious children. Well, yesterday your Mommy told me that they were pretty sure that you aren't going to move right now. Oh my gosh, there is a God in heaven that answers prayers! Just kidding. I never doubted God even if you did have to move. Your Mommy, Aunt Cathy have been after me to write on the blog. I just couldn't do it until now. Several of our online friends have written to ask what is going on. I hope you understand baby. Grandmommy still took pictures. I will post them and I can fill in several days for you. I promise to never stop writing again. I love you with all my heart and soul, I pray that you will always be close to me, at least until you grow up and go out on your own. Who knows though, maybe when you become one of those rotten teenagers I would be glad to see you go. Nah, I don't think so.
All my love,
Grandmommy
Glad to have you back. Even if they do move away you can still keep in contact and then it is an excuse for a holiday also.

So glad you are back to writing. Even if I talk to you every day I still like reading about your days with O Baby. I love you.

I miss my little boy. Wish I had a new picture. Aunt Cathy has been looking to see if the Wiggles are going to be in concert. We will have to go see them. I love you.

I missed you Ann and have been wondering if everything was okay! I am so glad you are back. Hope you are doing well. I see it has been a few days since this post. I hope they didn't change their minds and move anyway!

I have missed you so much Anne! Where are you? I hope all is well with you and your family. How is Ocean? I bet he's a full fledged toddler by now. Would love to see an update if you get some time!
