Feeling sentimental

This is the first Christmas without Grandma Great and I have found that I have been thinking about her a lot!! Especially after I found these ornaments that she made for us!! I found them silly at the time she gave them to us but I am so glad that I have them now!

I even found this little one that she made when I was pregnant with Makenna. It's making me teary! It says baby girl yet to be born!

Makenna didn't help things when she drew her a picture and said she couldn't wait until she "came back" so that she could give it to her. I don't know if she thinks Grandma is just on a trip and is coming home for Christmas or what. She knows she died but I don't think this sweet girl really understands the reality of that. That she won't see her again for a very long time! I told her that she was in heaven and that she couldn't come back but that we could go and give that beautiful picture to her on her grave. She will get it that way. She said that was ok but then started crying! Oh, my sweet baby girl!
This beautiful ring was my Grandmas and I wear it every day. I'm so thankful that it fits and that I can have a piece of her with me always!!

Merry Christmas Grandma Great! I know you will enjoy it this year with Grandpa!!

She will definitely enjoy Christmas with Papa Great this year. Papa came home tonight and said that he did an MRI on a lady that looked alot like his Mom. She had a stroke also. It was sad. Grandma Great loves you Kenna.
