💛 My Grandma – The Heart of My Childhood

#dearmom #lemon8contest #lovelettertomom

I know Mother’s Day is about moms, and yes, I love mine deeply. But if I’m honest, most of my childhood memories belong to my grandma.

She was my first teacher—showing me how to cook, how to pray, and how to see magic in little things. Her bedtime stories? The best. Every night was an adventure, and I’d fall asleep dreaming of her voice.

I miss her so much.

I don’t have many pictures with her—just one faded photo from when I was small. But if I could turn back time, I’d hug her tight and say:

Thank you for loving me so deeply. Thank you for understanding me when no one else did.

Some souls leave footprints on your heart that never fade. Hers is forever there. 💔

Do you have someone who shaped your childhood like this?** 🥹✨ #GrandmasLove #ChildhoodMemories
