From Drue, Declan and Maeve.

Dear Grampa,

I love you and I wish you were still here.

We are going to get your desk and fill it with the kind of candy you used to.

When I see nature I think of you.

When I cry, it reminds me how much I miss you.

Whenever I eat a mint, I think about you.

If I see a flower, I think about when you used to call me one.

Whenever I think about eating ice cream for breakfast, it's always too late!

But I always want to.

I love you,

love,

Drue

Dear Grampa,

I miss you.

I feel like you are always hugging me.

I wish you were here.

I really miss you.

I've got your OCD, and your love of nature.

You taught me how to eat ice cream for breakfast.

We moved again and we have a house right by the woods.

That makes me think of you a lot.

I love you very much,

Love,

Declan

Dear Grampa,

I miss you very much.

Since I heard you would eat ice cream for breakfast I want to eat ice cream a lot more.

When you tried to steal my binkie when you were in the hospital, I felt like you were out of the hospital.

I think of you when I eat mints.

I feel like you are still here with us.

I like how you called me flower.

Love,

Maeve
