grandma's funeral is 5/10 at 10:30am. i've been thinking about doing her eulogy... my family thinks i will get too emotional doing it, which i can't deny happening...but part of me really wants to share about her life. reasons:
1. when my grandpa passed away, my cousin did his eulogy because they shared the same japanese name. i share a name with my grandma.
2. she was like a 2nd mother to me.
3. i am probably the closest grandchild to her...
4. when i first found out she was sick, she and i sat down together and talked about her life. i took notes about her stories and have it all typed out.
plus i figure the tears will probably come out when i put together her eulogy or when i practice reading it. so, wouldn't my tear ducts dry out some?
i don't know... dave said that i should do it if i really want to. but he also says that i will probably get really emotional in front of everyone.
argh. not sure what to do...
on a side note:
got my free coffee today from starbucks. been doing 2 cups these days...
kids are super talkative recently. we had to practice walking up and down the stairs today because they were too loud and some of them were lagging behind.
a couple of my kids spelled "pennies" as "penis". i had to laugh!
i'm really trying to be "on it" this quarter cause i have to wrap up the year by the last day of school cause we're heading to CO and WA in May! i really haven't been in the mood to fly these past few years (probably from all the traveling for college), but i think i'm ready to take it on again.
