Help for today & Hope for tomorrow

Today is a very difficult day for me so I came here to share my wonderful grandson with everyone.  I was so so excited to become a grandma. I knew that he was due around the holidays. The day came December 24, 2009. He was so handsome and me I was so proud. I held him, looked at him and said "I'm your grandma and I have been waiting for you for a long time. I feel in love with him instantly.

He was a good baby very rarely cried, very strong. His mom (my daughter) and dad were so prould also. Lucas' Dad was unemployed at the time so it was decided that he would stay at home and care for him while he was an infant. He grew very close to his father. Sometimes mom would be jealous but I told her it would change. Right now he depends on dad  but as he gets older he will show how both of you are important and he did. He was always smiling laughing at everything. He loved life. When he started to walk he always had to have rocks in his hands. In the spring of 2011, he came over her to grandmas house and he found some big rocks. They were bigger than his little hands but he carried all of them in one hand. He would then walk up when he had to leave put them on my front porch and when he came back he would run to get those rocks.

On Oct 23, 2011 one year ago my grandson's life was taken by a very selfish man, a man that claimed to be his father. This man took a gun and shot my grandson, then took his own life. This man shattered the life of his wife(my daughter)and my entire family. The happiness i felt turned to a pain that i can not even describe. I remember that they knew that it would me hard to tell me so it was decide they would send a nurse friend to stand by because they knew how much Lucas meant to me. They told me what happen, my legs collapse from under me and I started throwing up. Instant shock. I live this day everyday. I miss my grandson so very much.  He spent 22 months on earth and i remember every smile, every tear, every first.  Never a day goes by that he is not on my mind. 

Lucas I send my Love, Hugs and Kisses to you.. My beautiful angel in Heaven.

                                                                       FOREVER IN MY HEART.
