    It’s so, so sweet to hear Alex told his grandma-law that he loves her to much. I’m not surprised. Although, I’m always watching videos I can see into Alex eyes when he interacts with grandma that there’s a special bonding between both of them. It’s good to let people know how much you love them before their eyes close forever. Alex, you’re also a special person in which the entire universe needs more people like you. Kem, you’re a beautiful and wise young woman. The first time you laid eyes across the street on Alex you made that connection, very brilliant. As people, we need to get out of our comfort zones and follow our hearts and dreams. Kem & Alex maybe the lord bless your marriage and remember who is always in charge in your life. Hugs & kisses to baby girl!❤❤❤️🇯🇲 🇸🇪

    Well, well! Isn't the Caribbean experience something else! I'm enjoying the stories so much and then your grandma burst into Jane and Louisa as she waltzes around. My mother taught us that song as part of a game which we played with our many friends while growing up. Btw, I'm from Trinidad and your grandmother reminded me of my mother in the way she told her stories 😊. They both have amazing memories. Blessings on your beautiful family.

I was born in the UK but whenever I went to visit her in JA, despite having no phone she always knew we were coming as she would tell us that she ‘dream us’. A beautiful generous, gentle, kind soul.
