19/7/29-9/1/21
You’re one of the most beautiful people I know, inside & out. I’m truly blessed to have you as my grandma. You’ve taught me a lot just by being yourself, so wonderfully positive and encouraging and caring and funny. You’re so good at making everyone laugh and feel comfortable. It has never gone unnoticed. I love you but also WHO YOU ARE Grandma. All the trials & tragedies you have been through have not made you bitter, only more resilient, appreciative and compassionate, and that is inspiring.

Thank u for the prayers you send my way each day. Thank u for all the noodles & crepes you made for me when I was younger & all the fruit you prepared for me when I was older. Thank u for teaching me how to feed the lizards and the birds and the cats and the husbands😉 Thank u for mending all the holes in my sweaters. You’re simply the best at that! Thank u for watching tv with me and for walking with me on the beach. Thank u for sharing your joy of music & of dance. You really light up the room when you dance with Dzadziu.

Thank u for always wrapping me in a towel after the ocean. Thank u for hosting such splendid dinners each holiday. Every time I smell broccoli & carrots cooking, I think of you. I think of you too when I’m doing my dishes. I have a window just above my sink and it was you who taught me how lovely this is - to take quiet moments with the sudds and the breeze and the view. Thank u for finding the islands & always welcoming the family there. It’s given us all such sweet memories.

Thank u for all the pretty outfits & jewelry you’ve gifted. Every time I put them on it makes me happy because I feel closer to you. Thank u for never forgetting my birthday. How you have memorized everyone’s in the entire family I’ll never know.

Thank u for everything you’ve endured - migrating from country to country, finding jobs, learning a new language, saving $ - all with the hopes of starting a new life and building a family. This is no small feat. From that, you have to know that you’ve given me a really amazing life.

You have always been and will always be with me Grandma,
like a smile in my heart.

We don’t say bye, rather,
see you later alligator☺️

For all of us, there have been many misses this year. (One for me was the annual trip I take to visit my hometown & family.) ♡

As we approach the end of December I’m hearing a lot of 2020 reflections tallying up the negatives we’ve faced. Important to acknowledge what has been overcome, but equally as important - acknowledgement of WHAT WE’VE GAINED. Through it all, I think many of us have learned the value of, what we may have before taken for granted.

⊹ I now feel a renewed, unified appreciation for

ʜᴇᴀʟᴛʜ, fʀᴇᴇᴅᴏᴍ, ʟᴏᴠᴇᴅ ᴏɴᴇs, ᴇQᴜᴀʟɪᴛʏ, sᴇᴄᴜʀɪᴛʏ, ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴜɴɪᴛʏ, ʟᴇᴀᴅᴇʀsʜɪᴘ, ᴅᴇᴍᴏᴄʀᴀᴄʏ, ᴛʀᴜᴛʜ, ʀᴏᴜᴛɪɴᴇ & ʙᴀʟᴀɴᴄᴇ...

What would you add to the list?

🐯Okay but can we talk about bikinis made from plastic trash?! @skatie_official makes their suits from recycled plastic and then heat transfers their prints to avoid water use and toxic runoff. They’re sewn here in the US and are shipped in compostable mailers! Oh, and by the way.. they are the MOST COMFORTABLE BATHING SUITS I’VE EVER WORN👏🏼🙌🏼👌🏼👙💕
