Don's mom, Nelda (Grandma W), died one year ago today.
We've been celebrating her birthday and now her passing by sending messages up with balloons. Braelyn made a card for her birthday back in December. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of it :( - but I assure you it was SWEET.
She also made a card to send up today. The card had a sad face on it with lots of tears! We sure do miss Nelda!
The kids picked out the balloons themselves. I think it's pretty appropriate that Donny chose one with a "1" on it. Aren't they sweet?
On our way home from buying the balloons we had a conversation that went something like this:
Donny: Can you talk when you go to Heaven?
Me: I'm sure you can.
Donny: Will you be able to hear me?
Me: (not really sure how to answer) Yes, I think so.
Donny: How will I find you when I get there?
Me: You just will.
Donny: Dogs go to Heaven.
Me: Yes, they do.
Donny: Can they bark?
Me: Probably so.
Braelyn: Daddy, you'll be able to see Beau when you get to Heaven.
Don: Yep, I hope we'll get to go hunt one more time. Can you hunt in Heaven?
Donny: How will I get back home after I get to Heaven?
Me: Heaven will be your new home. You won't be able to come back here.
This is the moment when I looked over at Don and told him that we will start taking our family to church. We're going to need some help here!
These two precious kids of mine are far wiser than their young 4 and 7 years of age.
