Day 11- You passed and we didn't know you

Abuelito Tanilo (My mom's dad)
(writing it in english even though I would have written it in spanish)
It saddens me that I was the only of your grandchildren old enough to remember you. I was fortunate enough to be able to go  spend the summer before you passed away with you in Mexico. I was only 8 and I appreciated everything you all did. I'm 26 yrs old now, I've grown some since then but  I will not tell you negative stuff that's happen to all and in the fam. I'm sure you know already :) But, how I wish you were around to see how much the family had grown. At the time, my mom's family was basically it and Tia Pola had just given birth to the twin when you passed. You saw them but nobody else met you. I think that even though the family has issues at times we mostly still unite as a family. We're all growing and maturing. All the kids are great and I wish they would have had the opportunity to meet you. Even though I was young I still remember you face. It's not something you forget. Abuelita, she's doing great and I'm glad that my mom brought her here after you passed. She wouldn't have made it out there. Honestly, I wish she would finally stop and stay with us. She isn't young and I want her to be ok but she's stubborn like I am so I know. I wish you can tell her just go stay with Golla or something. I know she would listen to you. Abuelito, we're all doing great. Everything is great and you have many grand kids... In fact you're a bisabuelo now...My son is 5 now, he would have love spending days en el campo with you, I know it. And My brother, I know you didn't meet him (he is one of the twins) he was 1 1/2 when you passed but guess what he had a baby in January. So you have 2 great-grandkids... Bueno pues, I love you! And if it's not good-bye pero hasta pronto!!!
Con Mucho Amor,
Reyna (la hija de Golla)
