Hello everyone! I've been waiting for some free time to add a post. This is actually really easy... hopefully I can find a few moments each week to add. I'm following...
I must say that I have definitely enjoyed the blog this last week. It is a refreshing change from Facebook and has led me to laugh and cry at the wonderful memories I have stored of Grandma forever. 
As I've told people about Grandma over the past 2 weeks, I've only told them of her presence at ever activity I ever had, christmas', games, and cookies...but really it is so much more...the love and pride in her children and grandchildren. As I looked around Grant's room this week, I realized that she loved all of us just as much as I love him. Which is crazy?! Maybe it's just the new mom in me, but I guess it never hit me like this before. As I looked around his room it was evident that she loved him just that much too; the afghan in his crib, the cross picture frame on the wall, the teddy lovee she brought to the hospital, the day she rocked him to sleep when he wasn't feeling well.... she truly loved us all so much. I'm posting a few more recent pictures from the hospital and baptism. Tomorrow we are headed to Auburn for Luke's baptism and it will be a great day of celebration as he becomes a Child of God. :) Grandma won't be there sitting beside us, but she will be missed by all of us.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
Love you all! Carrie
Carrie, It is so weird, but I have been thinking the exact same thing that you wrote....about how much Mom loved all of us. When I got back from taking the girls to KC I stopped at Mom's and was looking at her pictures on her camera...she had EVERYONE on there.....every child, grandchild and great-grandchild.....and so many events that she went too.....I heard once on Oprah, that the greatest compliment to a mom/grandma is that everyone in the family thinks they are her favorite....I think Mom had that kind of love. Thanks for the entry, it was so spot on...have a great week...love you....hug those cute boys of yours! Kim
