We Miss You Grams!

My mom died a year ago tomorrow.....let me start by saying how much we miss her! She was such a special lady to so many people. She was a wonderfu mom, a terrific grandmother aka "grams" and a best friend. A HUGE piece of our family is missing and we miss everyting about her. From her loving spirit and kind words to her sausage gravy and my morning snacks she brought me to work. From her playfulness with the grandbabies to her telling me that I needed to put on lipstick so I didn't look so washed out. From her getting onto me at work for locking someone in the closet to our phone calls each evening to see how each other's day was.

We are so glad that she isn't suffering any longer. It makes me so happy to know that she is in Heaven with the One we all long to live for. That one day, we will be honored to meet Him. And that she is looking down on us and watching over us. She is in a much better place than we are. Knowing that helps bring a smile to my face!
