“There are no coincidences”

 

 Currently I am at my grandma's house. But we are not here for long. Tomorrow morning we will be getting up and driving to Salt Lake. On Wednesday, my grandma's brother in law, Uncle Bob Tingey passed away. His funeral will be Monday in Salt Lake. My grandma is almost 91 and suffers from Macular Degeneration and is legally blind. She has a really hard time traveling. What a blessing that I am here and can drive her down to her sisters for the services. I am sad that it takes a funeral to see so many family members, but I am thrilled that I am here and can accompany her. 

Needless, to say, I have seen so many tender mercies of the Lord in my life and I truly believe that there are no coincidences.

Day 23

Today as I reflect upon the many blessings of my life I am so very grateful for my family and my ancestors. 

For the sacrafices they made and for the foundation they set for our family.

I want to be the best grandma I can be because of the role models that have been set before me.

I have such fond memories of time spent with all of my grandparents. 

My Grandma & Grandpa Terry

 and my Grandma Harper

I only have one grandma still with me today, my dads mom. That is a picture of her with my dad when he was little and then with grandad a few years ago. I cherish my relationship with her and how I love to learn all I can from her. I am not sure I will ever be ready for the time to come when she passes to the next life to be with my dad and grandad and her parents and other family members. Even though I know it will happen, sooner than later. I need to just enjoy the time and conversations that I have with her.
