Destiny

I love all my grandchildren the same, I just love each of them in a different way. My grandmother always told us that and I understand it more every day.

Destiny is my oldest granddaughter and she started me down the path of being a grandmother. I have been blessed to be a part of her journey through life since she took her first breath. She and I laugh together, argue with eachother and cry together, sometimes all in one day. Yesterday was one of those days and it ended in us holding eachother and crying after Reggie died. Destiny rarely says the words "I love you" to those she loves the deepest, me included. Yet, she always does something out of the blue that screams, "I LOVE YOU" loud and clear. Last night was one of those times. After we got home from the vet she went to the store. When she came back she gave me a container of my favorite ice cream, some reese's peanut butter candy and a little necklace with an "R" on it for Reggie. It's not about the cost, it's about how precious the thought that went into her gift.

I am so amazed at Destiny's beautiful heart. She has grown into such an awesome young woman. She makes me proud. I love Destiny Zelsnack and I know you love me too even if you don't say it. ❤❤❤
