Merry Christmas, Nanny

Christmas was always so magical when you were around.  I remember how excited I was to show you all of my presents...and you were just as excited for EACH one.  I also remember how you would take us to J.C. Penny's to get clothes.  Don't worry, we were just as excited as you were.  We had so much fun picking out our new clothes with you.  I miss you so much. 

For this Christmas, I thought I'd share this picture I drew of you in 2001.  You, Mom, and I were driving home from Laughlin and the purple Saturn was overheating.  I can remember exactly where on the road we were.  We had just stopped for gas.  You had rolled napkins into the window to guard from the sun on your face.  It was SO HOT!  I was sitting in the back seat and I discretely sketched this of you.  I found it recently in an old notebook.  I love you so much and wish you were still here with us.
