Today David's grandpa died. I'm so happy for him. I feel a little sad for me. We had a special relationship, at least it was special to me. I'm so glad that he was able to live here for a couple of years so we could spend some time with him. He loved my kids, especially Kelsey. He always said she was the prettiest little thing he'd ever seen. We liked to joke around with each other, and he always pretended to be shocked when I was sassy with him, but he was sassy too. I love you Grandpa.

Me wrapping up Grandpa cause he was always cold!
Grandpa was so good at holding Kelsey while she slept.
Grandpa had a wicked sense of humor!
We took Grandpa for a walk to get some sunshine a few weeks ago.
I'm so glad we did.
I love you Grandpa.

So sorry Jaime. I loved seeing your posts and pictures with him. How awesome he got to come live here for awhile and be with you guys and the kids.
Such touching and wonderful pictures.
Well, you know me, I hate death, so I'm so sad he died. But you said he was in pain, so I'm happy too, that he's in a better place. I'm glad you had such a great relationship with him!
He looked like he would be so much fun! I am so sorry for your loss, but also so grateful for teh knowledge you will all be able to be together again!
My prayers go out to you and your family. It looks like you guys had a wonderful relationship. It's never easy to say good-bye even if it for just a little while. It's great that your kids were able to know him. Thanks for sharing your memories of him. The pictures were great.
I'm sad that Logen didn't get to meet him but I'm sure he is happy. what beautiful pictures and memories you had with him.
((hugs)) I heard from Bonnie last week that he wasn't doing well. It's so wonderful that you made so many great memories with him.
Those are great pictures Jaime...
I am sorry I didn't finish his book so he could have seen it, but I am glad I have his story so his memory will be passed on...
I too am glad he has been out here so we could get to know him - You guys did so much with him, but we have some memories with him too.
I also think he is happier now.
That just made me cry. Sending you love. Even though it can be good for them it can still be so hard for us. I love all the wonderful pictures you have with him.
So, it looks like your spring break was awesome. I am glad you got to know Davids Grandpa so well. Those will be tresured memories you can share with your children about thier great-granpa. I'm so glad you got to walk with him a couple weeks ago. Priceless.
