Emma kissing her cousin Ella
Dear Emma,
Today marks a year since we lost your Aunt Carolyn to cancer. You met her only a few times before her passing, but I remember the last time like it was yesterday. Her weak hands stroked across your face that day as if to let you know how much she loved you. I believe that day she gave you a gift that one day you are to pass along to sweet Ella Carolyn. Her MaeMae's love. We celebrated today with Ella's first birthday to make today extra joyous because that's just how Aunt Carolyn would want it. I hope that as you grow, you hear more stories of how wonderful her life was and how much love she gave to all of us. We miss you Aunt Carolyn, thank you for giving Ella a beautiful day to celebrate today.
