They remember

Last weekend Jeff and I went to see Ama and Papa (his grandparents) in their new retirement home.  Ama is now 87 and Papa is 95.  I think they are settled in although Papa doesn't seem to fond of the place!

While we were visiting in their suite, Papa called Jeff and my attention to one of his lamps (they have these awesome lamp/sculptures and lots of other amazing art in their apartment, much of what he made himself).  Pinned to the lampshade was the little Angel pin from Angel's memorial service.

I almost lost it when he showed us that.  He made Jeff turn the lamp on too, to show it to us with the light on it :)

I think part of me was stunned they remember her.  it was over 5 years ago and I know their memory isn't so great these days.  It touched me very deeply.

Never underestimate

 

She's survived one of the greatest heartaches. She is made of steel!  

Christmas Eve

It's Christmas Eve and I am remembering my girl. I saw this photo and it made me think of her. I hope she is celebrating up there in heaven. I hope she is proud of her mama! I fought hard and am proud to be a survivor.

 

Love with no place to go
