Great Grandma Bateman and a National Championship

My sweet Grandma went to heaven this January and mommy had to leave you for a few days to go the funeral in Tennessee. While you had a blast with Daddy, I was happy to see that you missed me like crazy and even rehearsed what you were going to say to me first when I came back: "I love you, OR I missed you, OR I loved you and missed you!" It cracked me up and made my heart so happy when Daddy told me that. My Grandma was one of the kindest persons I ever knew and her heart was pure gold. She laughed with this silly infectious giggle every day of her life even towards the end. I pray that you inherit her love of God, her silliness and happiness, and her devotion to her family.

On a happier note, Clemson won the national championship this year for the first time since 1981! You have been wavering back and forth between being a Tiger fan, Gamecock fan, or Bulldog fan for several months. When Clemson won you decided you were a Tiger fan for good. You wanted to call Dad on the way to school to let him know your decision and once we hung up you said, "I bet I just made him so happy his underwear blowed off!" I think it was pretty close, sweet girl!
