Almost a Year

Dear Grandma,

I miss you. Your perfume is fading from your things. I’ve been wearing your sweater. I got my hair done yesterday. I wish I could show you. I think you’d love it… but then again you’ve always loved the way I look no matter what. It’s coming up on a year since I saw you (healthy) last. I stayed away because I wanted to protect you from covid…. You weren’t supposed to go so soon. I want to send you flowers and chocolate for Valentine’s Day.

Love,

Amber
