Funeral
Well, the funeral was 2 days ago, but I didn't get a chance to post anything afterwards. The funeral went well, mom had a minor meltdown compared to what I thought she would when she first saw granny in the open casket. But, oh my granny looked so beautiful. She was so peaceful and pretty.
She looked like the granny she used to be before she got so sick. But anyway... um, they had her casket right as you walked into the door and Momma almost fell out on us. But she was okay after that, she said, "I've made peace with the fact that my momma's gone. She's where she wanted to be: with her two boys, her husband and her momma. So I'm fine." Of course she's cried since then, but... we're doing good.
My granny was a beautiful person and I will miss her very much [as will the rest of my family]. She had three wishes before she died: 1) She wanted me and my sis old enough to help momma around the house, 2) she wanted to die in her house and 3) she wanted to die in her sleep. She got all three.
I think of her everyday and I won't forget her.
I love you, Granny. I know you're watching over us now [and probably fussing at us and our bad language. *giggles*].
