My beautiful nan, the strongest, funniest, most independent woman I know, with the kindest heart. How lucky am I that you were my best friend nan. You were there on your door stop with open arms as my shoulder to cry on in my hardest times, and there as my biggest fan in my best moments saying “I knew you’d do it my Ells bells”. I just can’t put into words how much I’m going to miss our chats, our laughs, the surprise deliveries from you, our strolls out for breakfast, and of course sitting in Honey & Harvey sharing a bowl of chips on the bar stools. There’s so much we spoke about that you couldn’t wait to see me experience at some point in my future - promotions, watching me walk down the aisle, and seeing me have my own family - and my goodness how I wish you could have been in this life with me forever. There’s so much of you in me - our love for the outdoors and climbs, our chocolate obsession, and that we just had to look at each other and know what the other was thinking. I promise to keep my side of our matching manicures going forever. You were, and always will be, my world nan and I am going to miss you more than you will ever know. How lucky am I that I got you for 31 years of my life. All I know is that life will never be the same again. Fly high nan, I love you beyond words xxxx

Mum, I wish we’d had longer at the end so I could talk to you like mum. They say it’s a marathon or a sprint & you just wanted to go to sleep. Thank you for making me the strong, independent woman I am today, just like you & for being my rock in helping raise our beloved twins. I will cherish all the happy times we had & I know you will always be with me. Love you, sleep tight xxxxxxxxx

If I could have only one more day, only one more. I would pick up the phone and tell you I love you. I would thank you for loving me unconditionally And I would thank you for helping me to be me If I could have only one more day. I pray heaven is everything you dreamt it to be. I pray you're safe and free of pain and have met up with your loved ones. And I pray you have heard every word I have said. To my lovely Mum, I will love you forever so be safe until we meet again.
