This blog update is dedicated to my Great-Grandma Pete. Up above their is a family picture of all the Petersen's from this past summer at the family reunion. The other pictures are of great grandma Pete with Hannah, Sophie, Drew, Carly, and Josie. My great grandma Pete was an amazing woman. She is now an angel in heaven watching over all of us.
When I was born, great grandma Pete, aunt Amy, and grandma Marcia took care of me at Ladybug Learning Center while mommy and daddy went to work. Once the daycare closed grandma Pete would come up and spend time with us at grandma Marcia's. She would play with us, rock us, and love on all of us. When my sister Josie was born, grandma Pete loved to hold and rock her, even when she was fussy. The picture above with Josie, as a tiny baby (about 4 weeks old), was when she was extremely fussy. Grandma Pete decided to take her outside and sit with her. For once, Josie was a content baby thanks to grandma Pete. She actually fell asleep and did not cry. Grandma Pete had her ways with a baby.
The last weekend we saw grandma Pete before she went into the hospital we went up to her apartment. Uncle Pete was there and Josie rocked with grandma the whole time. I'm sure grandma Pete was so happy that Josie actually wanted to sit and rock with her. We also shared brownie sundaes with Uncle Pete and grandma. I am so glad that we spent some quality time with her before she passed away. I will always remember those brownies sundaes and how happy she was to see us at her apartment.
Grandma Pete will always have a special place in all of our hearts. She will continue to watch over us and keep us all safe. She will give us strength to live everyday to the fullest with no regrets. We love you grandma Pete.
Please take the time to show your family how much you love them because you never want to have any regrets.
I love you great grandma Pete.
Love,
Drew Thomas Meyers
