Matthew Thinks of Grampy

After a rough day of sassiness and attitude, the tears started to flow at bedtime. Matthew misses his Grampy. It's been about two years since he passed and the boys still talk about him and cry about their loss on a regular basis. Lately, Matthew has talked a lot about Grampy's favorite color - purple. Two days ago, he declared it his new favorite color. Last night, as the tears slowed down, Matthew told me he wanted to draw a picture. He woke up early this morning to finish it. I can't even put words to this, other than to let you know two details that will make this picture even more emotional: Grampy loved dragons (purple and green ones, according to Matthew - and I think he may be right on with that) and Grampy called the boys "buddy". I'll let his art do the rest of the talking:

Caption reads: "My budy it's ok" (loving Grampy's totally bald head!)
