Today marks the day, two years ago, my nanny died. I miss her so much. I think of her everyday and wish she were with me. She was my source for a quick recipe, words of wisdom, to share some news, and to laugh and smile. I am forever changed since that day. My eyes have not seen the same happiness.
Things I remember the most:
Her smell
Her laugh (or giggle)
Green beans with bacon
Popcorn balls
Angelfood Cake on my birthday
Kings in the corner
Playing games
Days spent with her
Selflessness
Kindness
Love of family and tradition
Devotion to God
Her words of impact:
"Nothing ends good or they wouldn't end."
"Mourn a birth and rejoice a death."
So today as hard as it is, I rejoice in your memory, honor and spirit. I love you, Nanny!
