I feel sometimes like people think I should be over losing them...and if I'm not, I should hurry up. I'm glad to give you the opportunity to miss her. You deserve it. <BR/><BR/>Court....how could you forget poptarts and toaster strudel???? Rare delicasies that only Grandma would give us. <BR/><BR/><BR/>ah yes, the Impala.

I remember the day Ashley was born because of them and that my decisions were important because of them simply letting us pick where we wanted to eat for our birthdays. Do you remember flying kites on Easter? Going through Gram's clothes for Spirit Week? Daring each other to eat the canned peas when they weren't looking? I love how Grandpa would mow over any flower beds that weren't next to the house but always beat Dad in having tomatoes in the garden first. I love how Grandma matched the bazillion decks of cards she had with each room's decor. I remember the smile she gave me when she saw me pregnant with Dora.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139371.post-1130794981070557642005-10-31T15:43:00.000-06:002005-10-31T15:43:00.000-06:00JOy just said SUnday..."I sure miss gramma and gra...JOy just said SUnday..."I sure miss gramma and grampa in the woods"...guess I've done a decent job of talking about them,as they had passed away before she was born....<BR/><BR/>qtjktz:...what view guys get when a swim suit slipsklasieprofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12127227186034658114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139371.post-1130789296579728352005-10-31T14:08:00.000-06:002005-10-31T14:08:00.000-06:00It is has been 7 years since i lost the best frien...It is has been 7 years since i lost the best friend i've ever had...and sometimes it still hurts to think about all the times that she wasn't around to help me, to hold, me to tell me that i was loved.<BR/><BR/>My house that i grew up in with those memories is no longer mine...her bedroom is filled with someone elses stuff..and it hurts that the one place i wish i could go to for refuge and comfort is no longer there to go to.<BR/><BR/>I guess that is where learning and trusting God comes into play...it is okay to be sad when our hearts long for the ones we haven't seen in a long time. Loved ones that changed our lives because they seemed to have seen something in you that no one else did. They knew how to love because they lived so long and had made so many mistakes tthat they knew what was really important.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08795538413354707685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139371.post-1130788845516910552005-10-31T14:00:00.000-06:002005-10-31T14:00:00.000-06:00JUST got this in an email...umm..modified it to ma...JUST got this in an email...umm..modified it to make it more acceptable..SEE how much I"m learning ness???<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/> <BR/> My long-passed grandfather's birthday is coming up, and for me it is a time to reminisce. The long walks we used to take. The long drives, the special <BR/> trips he would make to pick me up so I could spend weekends with him, and the advice he used to give!<BR/> <BR/> Much was wasted because I was young when he died. If he were alive today<BR/> <BR/> and sharing his pearls of wisdom, I'd be a better man.<BR/> <BR/> Those gems were well and good, but the one I remember most, the jewel in<BR/> <BR/> the crown of grandfatherly advice, came when I was only 12.<BR/> <BR/> We were sitting in a park, watching children and their mothers enjoying a beautiful spring day.<BR/> <BR/>He told me that one day, I'd find a woman and start my own family.<BR/> <BR/> "And son," he said, "be sure you marry a woman with small hands."<BR/><BR/> "How come, Grandpa?" I asked.<BR/> <BR/> "It makes your privites look bigger."<BR/> ..........Kinda brings a tear to your eye, doesn't it?klasieprofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12127227186034658114noreply@blogger.com
