I Heart Turkey


OK no more sad posts. On Thanksgiving I was digging through my potatoes and I found a heart shaped potato. I can't bring myself to eat it.

Grandma Lorraine


Today our Grandma Lorraine died peacefully in her sleep after a long battle with cancer. She wasn't your ordinary grandma. Grandma was a spunky lady. She loved clowns and the Price is Right. She left behind 5 children, 10 grandchildren, and 1 great grandson. Today she was reunited with Grandpa Frank after 22 years. I bet she was glad to see him. We will miss you Grandma.

It's Amazing.........

For the last two weeks my grandma has been in the hospital and now a nursing home. Today she was given a week to live. I took Tyler to visit her twice last weekend and I was was amazed at how he treated her. They've become close buddies over the last two years. I watched her eyes light up when she looked at him. He sat on the bed with her and talked about Batman and candy. The rest of us looked at her with sad and concerned eyes and all he saw was his Grandma Dude. Today he visited her with my mom and she said he sat there and held her hand and asked where his presents were. He doesn't know anything about cancer or death. How wonderful. Thank you Tyler for your innocence and for loving your Grandma Dude so much.
