You made me a Grandma and I was so ready for this journey with you. I will cherish everything about you, your smell, your touch, your giggle, your eyes, everything. I will always have a corner of the watermelon for you. You brought me so much joy in these past months. You will always be in my heart and my mind…God promises me that I’ll understand it better, by and by. Until we meet again. G-Ma loves you 😘😘

My daughter & I fell head over heels. You were such a good, perfect baby. It was obvious that you were surrounded by love, you were so content & happy. I’m sending up special prayers for your mom, dad & sister because I know losing you is devastating to them especially. I know all is well with you because you’ve gained your wings. Please ask God to bring peace to your parents, their hearts are broken. Until we meet again sweet boy🥰

I don’t regret any of it because you brightened my days. I wanted to see you grow up and do all types of things. You weren’t meant to stay long but it seems like I’ve know you forever. Justin is my first nephew and you are my first great nephew. I thank your parents for allowing me the opportunity to be apart of your life. I will miss you until we meet again. My baby, my Nook. I love you!!! Your Tee Tee.
