Heartbreaking

We've been dealing with the loss of Grandma W (Don's mom) since August 9th.

While we know she's in a much better place, probably enjoying the view with Don's dad; we are missing her.

Donny is much too young to grasp what's happened.

Braelyn...well, she's just old enough to understand, but at the same time she has a lot of questions (and hopes!).

For example, a few days after Grandma W passed away, Braelyn asked when she'd be back.

Grandma W has been a major topic of discussion for Braelyn and me every day after school. Today, Braelyn asked what all Grandma has gotten since she's gone to Heaven. She also mentioned how cool it would be if people who die could come back to visit for every major holiday...(YES, THAT WOULD BE COOL!). Her last hope for today was that we had a "really, really, really, really tall ladder that reached all the way to Heaven." She wanted to go visit for just an hour today. Lord, wouldn't that make things easier!

Grandma W, we sure do miss you.
