Remembering Grandma



Grandma and Jack - May 2008

Where did the time go? Today it is one year ago that my mother passed away. I just wanted to take a minute to remember my mom and found this picture of her doing something she loved. I know she would be proud of us for carrying on without her here, and it hasn't been easy at times, but we have helped each other along the way as a family. I, myself, am especially proud of my dad for putting on his running shoes and staying in the race. After my sister and I made a mad rush to the temple at 5:30 this morning, I decided to spend the rest of today feeling grateful for an eternal family and for the Savior who made it all possible.

Someday we'll have to chat about how we "commemorate" such a day. That is a sweet picture of your mamma.

What a great post. Your mom was such a wonderful lady. I didn't know her very well, but she still always made a point of saying hi to me whenever I saw her.
