(I didn't really say anything in February, but when I went to AZ my Grandma was dying. I left in the morning on Tuesday, and arrived in Arizona on Wednesday. My grandma passed away that night. I know that she won't be able to read this, but my family might. This is for you Grandma. <3 )
Thank you Grandma and Grandpa. Thank you for giving me my first doll Samantha. Little did you know that I would expand my doll family and have a doll blog. Thank you Grandma for giving me most of the dolls things I have today. Now when I see them, I'll think of you. Thank you for being the start of my American Girl doll life. Without you, this blog most likely would not have happened. It was through the Christmas and birthday money that you and Grandpa gave me that Saige was able to join the doll family. It brings a smile to my face that technically I was only supposed to have one doll. I was so fortunate to have a Grandma who loved dolls. I would have loved to go to the American Girl doll store with you in Scottsdale, but unfortunately, we never got the chance. Thank you Grandma for putting the love of dolls in my heart. Now, I'll always think of you when I take pictures of my dolls. You were an awesome Grandma and I wish that I could have spent more time with you. I think I also inherited the love of sewing from you. Thank you Grandma. You will be greatly missed by many people. <3

I'm sorry for your loss. Mourning is tough. Back in March, my best friend lost her battle with kidney cancer, and she died young. I know from experience that losing a loved one is horrible. But, you'll get through it, and soon, when you think of your Grandma, you won't tear up. You won't sob. You'll think to yourself, "She was a wonderful lady." And you will smile. ^-^ Best wishes to you, Bellla. And remember- prayer is powerful.
