It is obvious that little Lexi is a wonderful blessing in your life - but, oh ... what a shining blessing you are in hers as well.
This is a lovely letter to your granddaughter. I'm sure she will treasure this book of love for always.
The answer you gave to the inquisitive questioner was so touching.
God bless! Enjoy that wonderful time of Nanny-sitterdom. ;)

Comment from LexieMannix
I thought I had visited your book before. Chapter nine, beutiful poem. As they all are. I particularly like the seventh as well.
I applaud you, not only in your work, but in preparing wisdom for your grandchild ahead, jan. Beautifully written, as ever, and very poignant. I would have cried in that room as well. No point could be made more strongly than with a vulnerable child in your arms, and your own kin. I love your clear expression of imagery. Nicely done.

I love how you wrote this. I'm sure your granddaughter will cherish this very, very much. Your love and devotion to both your granddaughter and H-E-A-R-T of Suffolk comes through so easily. Thanks for sharing this.

Comment from BethShelby
I think this book you are writing is a wonderful idea. The day will come when your grandchild is old enough to understand that she will be very proud of grandmother. I also think the organization which you founded is bound to be doing a lot to help those victims of sexual abuse. I agree that it will never totally be eradicated but each person you help is certainly worth the effort.

Comment from Nanette Mary
Hullo Rdfrdmom2 ....
You certainly have a great idea - producing a book for your Grand-daughter, step-by-step as she grows but, from the theme of today's writing, she will need to be at least of mature mind to be able to read and understand what it is that you are endeavouring to do through your
social work. As she is now just ten days old, it will be many years into the future before she will read what you have written - nominally for her but very much about the work of your organisation.
There is nothing to suggest changing and I thank you for sharing this with us.
With love from ..... Nanette Mary.

Comment from ExperiencingLiphe
I've just gotta say that I'm kinda shocked that you didn't think to tell people the Lexi was going to be there to get more people there. The only excuse you need to take pictures is that Lexi will only be that size once so you have to record it while you can

Very moving and touching tribute. Well done. I think it's quite a legacy. I think the artwork is fabulous for this piece and complements it very well.
