To my Nana Thank you for all the love you gave us For all of the smiles and big hugs For all of the biscuits and cakes brought out after lunch For always being interested in whatever we were doing For being proud of us when we adventured overseas and being so happy when we came home Thank you for always being able to laugh at yourself. And for laughing even when I was being cheeky. Thank you for calling me Laurie Lu and for calling Liam Harry Potter. Thank you for being shorter than me. Thank you for the mug with the wrong name on it and the weird sheep scarf that I never quite figured out. Thank you for trying to make spaghetti for Liam cos you know that’s his favourite. Thank you for always standing outside and waving until we were out of sight. Thank you for saying that I looked like a nice little girl the last time I saw you even though I was 29. Thank you for loving my Mum, and for loving my Dad. Thank you for loving family more than anything else. Thank you for being my only Nana. I never needed more than one because you gave me enough love for one thousand Nanas. I am so lucky to be your granddaughter. I will miss you with my whole heart. Your loving granddaughter, Laura.
