Nana has gone home

Well, this has certainly been a long day. This morning we got the call that my grandmother had gone to be with the Lord. She was 100 years old, and was ready to go home, so this was expected, but still hard to hear. I am thankful for the 35 years that I have gotten to spend with her and thankful for the amazing grandmother that she was to me. I pray that I can be as good of a wife and mother that she was in her lifetime to my husband and boys. We also got the news that Nana's funeral will most likely be on Drew's birthday. So, we were left with the task of postponing his party and preparing for the trip up to Pennsylvania. It is a strange thing to lose 3 grandparents in one year. It has been quite and emotional day, but I guess laying her body to rest on Drew's first birthday is somehow fitting...the end of one life and the beginning of another. Please keep my family in your prayers and rejoice with us that my Nana is now feasting at the banquet table of our Savior, she is no longer an alien in this world, but home where she belongs.
