Today is my grandmother’s birthday.
It has taken me nearly an hour, sitting, staring at these pictures, to even type that sentence. The words to describe how deeply and constantly I miss her don’t seem to exist. They are frozen somewhere inside me, and my heart aches with the weight of them.

I don’t know what to say, but I wanted you to know that I read this and I’m thinking of you and wishing I could drop by with a birthday cake.
