My Grandma Joyce passed away on Friday night. She was 93 and not doing very well. She couldn't hear anymore and had a really hard time seeing. She also didn't know who her family was anymore when we would go to see her. I am really glad we went to visit her last time we were in town for Thanksgiving. She didn't recognize us but loved my two girls. She did ask me about when my baby was due but didn't realize I was her granddaughter which was sad for me because she used to always know who we were when we visited her even if she couldn't hear what we were saying. I was so proud of Emma and Paige because they offered her lots of hugs and smiled at her a lot without any force from us. Sometimes older people and nursing homes can be kind of scary for kids. My Grandma loved long hair and kept touching Emma's hair saying how pretty it was and how nice these two little girls were. I wished she could have known they were her great granddaughters but for her to at least smile and be happy they were giving her hugs was great. I will miss her but know she is in a better place and not in pain anymore. We took this picture when we there at Thanksgiving and I am so glad I did.Sunday, March 2, 2008
