I miss the afternoons baking cakes with Grandma and eating the batter; laughing about not having enough for the cake!

I miss birthdays and cakes made by Grandpa, with white, whipped cooked frosting on angel food cake; ice cream and fresh strawberries.

I miss old fashioned birthday cards, especially the ones Grandma sent where she had erased the signature from her "older friends" and put her name! They were so sweet. Now, my father gives me old fashioned birthday cards and Christmas cards that she had tucked away in the dresser in the back room. I miss the old "finds" from the dump... (not sure my husband does), they were quite unique.

I miss Grandma. *tear*
