A Thank You To My Grandma
Lauren Mullenbach

Grandma,

I have so much to thank you for. You have shaped the person I am today and I cannot imagine my life without you in it. I hope everyone in the world has someone like you.

Thank you for the world’s best hugs.

Thank you for loving me even when I couldn’t love myself.

Thank you for watching out for my family. They are my world.

Thank you for the full tummy I have after leaving your house.

I love all your stories. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and lessons learned.

Thank you for praying for me. I need it.

Thank you for opening my eyes to all the beauty in the world. You have such a gift in being able to see it all.

Thank you for kissing my scraped knees and teary eyes as a kid, and as an adult.

Thank you for the advice on how to conquer the world.

Thank you for teaching me about self-respect and being a loyal and hardworking woman.

Thank you for raising my parent. They take after you in all the very best ways.

Thank you for being the strongest woman I have ever met.

Thank you for being the anchor that keeps me grounded.

Thank you for accepting me for who I really am.

You deserve the world. I cannot thank the universe enough for putting you in my life. I don’t know anyone who has such a kind, patient, and gentle soul. It is only in my wildest of dreams I can hope to be as wonderful as you are. Your life has impacted so many, so greatly. Your compassion and tender heart are a blessing to this world.

All my love,

Your favorite grandchild

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
