A Letter to My Grandson

Brannan John, I loved you from the time I knew your Mommy and Daddy had conceived you. The thoughts, emotions and fears that I've had during your Mommy's pregnancy have sometimes been overwhelming. But, God Almighty has sustained me and calmed my fears.

I saw your sweet body move inside your Mommy's womb...and loved you.
I heard your heartbeat...and loved you.
I pray for you daily...and love you.

I long to see you, hold you and love you.
I long to watch you grow...bigger, stronger.
I long to take you to Southern Miss football & baseball games.

I long for you to pick wildflowers for your Mommy.
I long for you to find frogs for your Daddy.
I long for you to give me wet kisses.

I long for you to begin pre-school.
I long for you to begin elementary school.
I long for you to begin junior high and high school.

I long for you to fall in love.
I long for you to have children.
I long for you to live a long fulfilled life.

And...for all of your life, I long for you to be my GRANDSON.

I love you with all my heart,
Granna
