It's so hard to see them go and to know that they won't remember at all for long...but every visit really still counts, still matters, I really believe that.Heather of the EOhttp://www.extraordinary-ordinary.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564587143098254879.post-53697464120466644802010-07-14T18:38:52.666-04:002010-07-14T18:38:52.666-04:00So nice!

I'm so grateful I was able to visit her just a couple weeks before she went to heaven. Though she didn't know who I was, it was a really special time.Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02227591186996624142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564587143098254879.post-60481863669465608992010-07-14T15:25:40.256-04:002010-07-14T15:25:40.256-04:00Ah, what a precious visit!

Cherish these times with her. I wish I had more moments like this with my grandpa.une autre mèrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08785118854145562521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564587143098254879.post-59736855710223903312010-07-14T10:32:17.605-04:002010-07-14T10:32:17.605-04:00So sweet.
