I have posted this picture before, but it is one of my favorites of me and my great grandma, and unfortunately it is the last one.
My great-grandma died last year on July 6th, so today makes 1 year since she died. I think that in the last few weeks it has really started to hit me, even more so than it did back then…It feels like so much more than a year since she died for sure. I wish I could have spent more time with her than I did in the last few years of her life.
I won’t ever forget the last time I saw her. It was on May 1st at my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary. I went out to her house to see her and she was sleeping. She had been so bad off I didn’t even wake her up. I just walked back out, but down deep i knew that was the last time I would get to see her. I cried almost all the way home…
I was lucky to have her in my life for 26 year! Most people don’t get that lucky. She got to see me grown up and happy. I just wish she could have got to see me with a kid! she would have loved that.
I miss you Nanny J! I know that if there is such a place as heaven she would have for sure made it there.
