remembering.

i have to admit that memorial day means more to me now that my grandpa is gone. i miss him. i long for his advice. i think about him daily and i ache for my sweet grandma who is lonely for him now.

but even though there is still some sadness, yesterday was a good day, because it was just another reminder that life continues, families are eternal and love extends beyond the here & now and into forever.

i know that i will see him again and i know that she will see him again, too. it makes me smile to think of the lovebirds being reunited one day and never having to spend another moment apart. just as it should be.

and grandma, i am loving your stylish cameo and perfectly chosen lipstick. i can't help but think that he was looking down on you and thinking that you look as beautiful as ever.
