I know that if it wasn't for Ashlee being here with me I would be at the deep end of depression. I miss my Jeannette so much and so when Ashlee gives me this look with that gorgeous smile it totally brings a smile to my face. I see Jeannette in her. She has a heart of gold just like Jeannette. She lives with me just like Jeannette did before she went to the Air Force. Ashlee loves to cook. I hear her in the kitchen chopping away. Chop, chop, chop. The aroma of healthy food fills the air. She gently taps on my door and opens it. There she stands with a big bowl of Chinese salad with chicken strips. She runs back to the kitchen and brings back a healthy drink that she made from scratch. I look at her and ask myself what did I do to have God bless me with this amazing grandchild. Jeannette did the same thing. Sometimes when I least expected it, she would make me the sopa that looks like shells and a big pork chop. She too would run back to the kitchen and bring back a big tall glass of Pepsi. I used to work the P.M. shift at the hospital so I slept till about 10:00 a .m. Jeannette would always make sure that I ate before I left for work. I remember one day she packed me a lunch. When it was time to eat it I opened it and she had made me a sandwich. Also, an apple, orange and best of all my pink cupcakes that I love. To this day, I still enjoy eating those same cupcakes. Matter of fact, Ashlee surprised me at work last week. She brought me a surprise and guess what? Yes, a pink cupcake. They are those snowball cupcakes. She happened to be on a work break and instead of resting she headed to the local Seven/11 store and brought it to me. I love my Ashlee and I am glad she is here to comfort me and support me.
I know her auntie is proud of her.
I miss my Nettle Poodle.
