Grandma Ann....

I am missing this classy lady today, for oh so many reasons! I so badly want to drove down to her place and have a chat like the good old days! And of course it would be complete with a treat! She always knew just what to say to make me feel better about life. She told me how great I was even when I didn't always see it myself! And she sure knew how to make me see the positive in life. So since she isn't here anymore I decided to buy something that reminded me of her....stopped at the store and bought me a rose bush for my desk. Its helping already!

Here is a fun tribute that my sister wrote about Grandma.

I also decided a few days ago to start reading the history of my grandparents again. Started with Grandpa John's. I already have learned things I didn't know or simply had forgotten! What a great heritage I come from! I have many of the traits of Grandma Ann but it has been neat to read a little of my Great Grandma Larson and see that I have some of her traits as well! How did I get to be so lucky?? Feeling proud to be a who I am....a product of those who have gone before!

Thankful today for my heritage and hope I can live up to it!!
