How do you say good-bye!

Today right around 12pm I lost my grandma...someone I admired and looked up too. Today I also understood WHY I went home this past summer. I have questioned many times the events that took place over the past year and why I have be in the situation I was in and yet now I UNDERSTAND! God gave me a chance to make memories with my granny that otherwise I may have never been able to make. I was in Pensacola for the entire summer and spent many many days with granny..from just talking to her, to helping her with this or that really just whatever she needed me to do. I was able to make wonderful memories that for the rest of my life I can look back on and remember. I am SOOO thankful that granny found out and new that I was happy and ok and that she did not leave this world worried about me. She was without a doubt a wonderful grandmother and I am blessed that this amazing woman was in my life and such a huge part of my life.
Although I am grateful for all these memories there is still no way to really know how to say good-bye so I have decided just as I did with my paw paw that I won't say good-bye because one day I will be in heaven with them and I will get to see and talk to them again. This is not good-bye just I will see you soon. My life will always be touched by her kind words, her jokes between her and I and her always telling me how much she loved me. I am grateful now that God saw fit to take me home for the summer and give me a chance to make such wonderful memories with such a wonderful woman. These next few weeks will be hard for all us but we can find some comfort in knowing that she does not suffer anymore and that when she left she KNEW we loved her.
Granny I will miss the phone calls and the little jokes we shared, I will miss walking in your house and seeing all the pictures on the wall of all of us, of talking to you about this or that or calling you to ask a question about cooking something I will miss all off that and you so much! I love you and I am sooo grateful to have had such an amazing grandmother in my life. I will always love you and I will NEVER forget you !!! I pray that you will look down and see me happy, see me get married and see me have babies and know I AM OK!!!! Thank you for touching my life in such an amazing way! I promise my children will always know who you were!!! Go rest now and give Paw Paw a hug for me!!! I love you soooo much!!!
