To Zeke and Kian

From your Lolo Noe

My dear grandsons,

How I wish I could run with you, laugh with you, and chase the waves like a normal Lolo would.
How I long to carry you on my shoulders and show you the stars like I once did when I was young.

But even though my body is tired, my love for you is strong and endless.
Even if I cannot always join your games, I will always cheer you on.

I watch you with pride. I pray for you with all my heart.
I dream of better days — and every time I see your smile, I believe those days are coming.

Never forget, my boys, your Lolo loves you more than words can say.
You are my sunshine, my joy, my reason to fight each day.

Love always,
Lolo Noe
