My grandma

This is my grandma. She is Keegan, Konley, Jack, Tristan, Sophia, Lillie and Reid's great-grandma. Right now is she is happy and healthy and dancing with our other grandma's up in Heaven. She is so very missed down here. But we are all so grateful that we know where she is. Grateful that she is no longer struggling. Grateful that she was the kind of grandma that would get down on the floor and play a board game, that would let an 8 year old jump rope in the kitchen, that loved the boynton kitty "love to eat them mousies" poster, loved her coffee in the morning, would drive 6 hours with g'pa to college graduation, that made a christening gown out of her wedding gown to share it with us all, that shared stories, that taught us to make almond roca (next week, gram) and loved us ALL to the very end. My heart aches. It hurts everytime I think of it, but I know, know, know that my grandma is in an amazing place. It only hurts to know that she's no longer here. No longer where she can talk back to me when I talk to her. She was only 42 when I was born and I am so lucky to have had her.
