"Jannie dreamed too big for this world. Her dreams couldn't be fulfilled here. She couldn't be convinced that her hopes and aspirations might just not happen. Like Christmas morning, every day she thought there might be a present to open.

But still it was very rare to see her without a smile on her face. When she came into a room you noticed her! And even more important, she noticed you!
Sammi was the joy of her life. In a way they were like sisters. Every day for them was about what to do today, what food to eat, or what clothes to wear, or what place to go to, or what people to go see.

If a plan didn't go her way, that just meant there had to be a newer better plan. Maybe she is in a better place, where she can rain down wishes upon us all, and she can guide her baby Sammi throughout her life.

Maybe she is in a place where perfection is possible, where there is no heartbreak. Maybe she will finally open a present and out will spill her every desire, and she will glow with happiness, and be showered with the answer to her every dream.

Yes I think that is where she is now...” ~ Dad
