Made it through

I am weary! It was a very emotional weekend and I can feel it. It takes a lot out of you. I also had to give a talk about all of the Grandchildren's memories. I think it went well but stressed about it until it was over. My little girl is also having a hard time. She keeps telling me she is sad because she wants to go see Grandma Great or wants to put a flower in her hair, etc....She also said many numerous things yesterday that about put me in tears every time (that will be in the next post because I'm too tired today:) I love how sensitive and sweet my baby girl is. It is also very difficult trying to explain death to a five year old. This is her first close experience with death. We just keep telling her that she went to be with Heavenly Father just like Dot (my parents dog just recently). She then tells me that she wants to go see her. We will be able to someday baby!! Someday. I'm so thankful that Families are Forever!

I am so sorry Krista. Experiencing a loss is so hard, but I think it is even harder when you see it affect your kids.

It is so sad that Makenna has lost her Grandma Great. Did you hear Dad say Grandma Great when he was dedicating the grave. I told him everybody was going to think he got it backwards. He didn't care that was for his Kenna. Kenna got so upset when they put Grandma in the car to take her to the cemetary. She asked where they were taking her. She was always so excited to go visit Grandma. I hope she always remembers her.
