Sad Times

You may have noticed the lack of entries in my family Blog. My May Day blog shared a fun family tradition of May Baskets. May Day has always been a day that I have shared with my Grandma. Just a few weeks after this May Day blog we lost my dear Grandma (May 22nd). She was very close to us and having lost her in our life has created a empty space. She was the best GG Ma! She sang read books, gave walker rides as well as listened to the kids stories and encouraged their thinking and creativity. She will be missed dearly. We say hello and waver to her each evening when we say our prayers.

Two weeks after losing my Grandma, my Dad's girlfriend of 20 plus years had a brain anurism (not sure of the spelling). After two weeks of being in the ICU and showing signs of recovery, she passed away (June 22). Debbie was a wonderful person that loved to can food, farm, garden and knit blankets. We have a few of her blankets and cuddle with them often. She too will be missed by all. The kids wave and say hello to her each eveing too. We actually say hello and wave to my Step-Dad too (he passed away a year ago July). Our family has experienced a lot of loss in the last year and a half.

For some reason, I just couldn't get myself to blog since their passing. I would open the Denton Den and read my last blog and then lose inspiration. I am hoping that things will change after writing this blog. Here are a few pictures of our loved ones that now look down on us from Heaven.
