Visitng Grandma's grave on her favorite holiday

A little graveside humor. Robby and I feeling special because our names are in stone.











These are fun and cute pictures, but for some reason, this Thanksgiving was especially hard for me. I really miss my mom. The first year, I put on a brave face and didn't let it get to me that she wasn't there on her favorite holiday. But, this year, I think it hit. I just miss her. I miss her for my kids, and I miss her for my siblings, and I miss her for me. I know she's watching over us, and that is very comforting, but I ache to touch her, kiss her cheek, and see her again someday. It will be wonderful.

Amy forgot to mention that there was so much goose poop in the cemetary that we seriously could not take a step without stepping in it. Eeeewwww!!!

I have been here. Robb showed Traci and me his plot. And he pointed out your names. Which makes me laugh.

How did I miss this post??? Your mother's grave maker is BEAUTIFUL. I'm sorry she has one with two dates on it. Every time I drive past there I look out to where I know it is and I say "Hello Susan! We miss you!" And it is true every time.
