Hello Samantha

Its 2017, and it’s March, so that’s your birthday!

I have been remembering the day you were born, and thinking about when we brought little Ryan to meet you. After a quick peep at you, it seemed he found the hospital cupboards, the bed wheels, and other bits of hospital equipment much more interesting, and mainly played under your mum’s bed! It was very funny.

I have been looking at the many, many photos we have of you, and found this lovely one of you carrying all the dolls clothes and toys. You played most of the days with these when you were little, and your cousin Amy had given you a back-pack full of clothes so you could change Baby Choo Choo over and over again.

Of course you were 3 then, and now you are 8! We miss seeing you very much, and wonder how you are, and what you like doing now.

Your cousins Jas and Amy are often talking about you, and the things you children used to do together, and all the fun they remember having.

Heres’s a photo of you and Ryan with Jas and Amy at my house.

I have so many happy memories of you, Samantha Ruth. You will always be in my heart, and I hope and hope we will meet again one day.

With love to you from Granny Ruth
