My Whole Life

I know its not much, I mean I am only 20 years old but I have lived with her my whole life. My whole life I have been holding hands with this woman. I have not known anything else. She was there when I started walking. There to put my on the buss the first time, and every time after that. She was there when I got sick. She was there for our June Birthdays together. She was there when I did good in school- she would give me a few dollars for each A. She was there when I failed Math in the 7th grade. She was there I graduated High School. She was there when I left for college. Thats right I left her for college. I guess she must have been glad. I mean not on the surface but deep down she must have been glad. Not a lot of her grandkids went to college. I left her though, and now she is leaving me.

I am so afraid to call my mom. I feel like anything could have already happened but she just has not called me yet. I will call though, because its all I have. We have to do this one alone me and Nonna. I cant be there for her. Stefanina e Nonna sono solo mon.

Our Father
Padre nostro, che sei nei cieli
Sia santificato il tuo nome.
Venga il tuo regno.
Sia fatta la tua volontá.
Come in cielo cosí in terra.
Dacci oggi il nostro pane quotidiano,
E rimetti a noi i nostri debiti,
Come noi li rimettiamo ai nostri debitori.
E non ci indurre in tentazione,
Ma liberaci dal male.
Nel nome del Padre, del Figlio e dello Spirito Santo.
Amen.

Hail Mary
Ave, Maria, piena di grazia,
il Signore è con te.
Tu sei benedetta fra le donne
e benedetto è il frutto del tuo seno, Gesú.
Santa Maria, Madre di Dio,
prega per noi peccatori,
adesso e nell'ora della nostra morte.
Nel nome del Padre, del Figlio e dello Spirito Santo.
Amen.

The tears are flowing as I read your post. You and Nonna have shared so many special things and times together. One day, you too will share special times like the ones that you have shared with Nonna, with your grand daughter. And she too will know the legency of Nonna. Please know that I'm here for you. You and Nonna are in my thougths and prayers. I love you my little buddy....
