Frozen (in time)

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.
