She's Gone

At about 12:27 am eastern time this morning, my dear Gram passed away. I am totally fine and at peace knowing she finally is. Knowing that she is finally, once again looking into the face of her dear son, my dad, that she put in the ground 4 years and 6 days ago.

My Gram was so wonderful and I got the very best of her when I was there recently. That Wednesday when I was there when she was such a chatterbox was the last good day she had and I got it. Selfish? Maybe. I'm OK with being selfish in regards to my time with her. She told me then that she always wanted to be a bird. I told her to spread her wings and just fly. She finally has and I can only guess that the view is full of colors this world has never seen.

Once again, I realize how blessed I am to have had this beautiful bird fly into my life.
