I am your grandmother, you call me MiMi. There are some things you should know... First, that you are deeply loved. The love I have for the two of you is so strong, and so innate. There is nothing you can ever do to make me love you more, and nothing you can ever do to make me love you less. Second, your parents are my children. That may seem strange to hear, but I love them as they love you. They will always be my babies, even as they hold you in their arms, my precious granddaughters. My love for each of them overflows into your life. Finally, and most importantly, I want you to know that even now I am praying that you will be in the same relationship with Christ that I am in and that your parents are in. It is the most important thing in all of our lives, and in truth, the only thing that matters in this life. I long for your emotional health, your physical health, your relational health; I hope you fall in love, get married and have a family' but all of those pale in comparison to your eternity.
More than anything, I hope to spend it with you, and you with Christ. So know that your are prayed for. Faithfully. In fact, if you ever wonder if anyone in this world is thinking of you and praying for you, rest assured. PaPa and I are. God wanted you to be born. He made you to love you. There is only one Malaysia Kyah Iwebema and Lola Lucille Smith, and you are them. I cannot wait to see all that you will do with your life. And for as long as I live, I will stand by that life, and serve it in any way I can.
Love MiMi
