mema

mema, my dad's mom, died today.

we are beyond sad. horrifically shocked.
i am absolutely nauseous that leighton never got to meet her.

thinking about her has always helped keep me grounded;
she knew the important things in life but few of the luxuries.
kind. smart. humble. quiet. witty. loyal. generous.

we were blessed by her simple life & blessed by her strong love.

Sara,

I just found my way to your blog because I saw that you comment on 2 of my other friends' blogs (Abby and Kristin) so I clicked over to yours. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I will pray for you and your family in this really hard time.

Sara, so sorry. I want you to know that she has good company in Heaven. Our Auntie Lizzy (grandma--she raised my dad) died the same day as your Mema. I bet they met each other at the gates!
