Tradition in our house for Grandma's birthday,death day and mothers etc. Is to go to the dollar store and Kanaan, Mya and Myself pick a colour of ballon and we get them filled and take them to My mom's grave site. We talk a little bit about her, who she is, what we miss about her and I always try to explain where she is. Mya calls the grave site" Grandma's House" she really doesn't get it. Kanaan understands and misses her a lot and I try so hard for him not to forget about her. Kanaan always kneels by her stone asks me what it says and asks questions about God and takes a few moments to think. Well this time Mya decided to join him and I thought it was just the most precious thing and had to take pictures. I swear this was not a posed.
The kids make me so pround.
"We miss you Grandma" till we meet again.

precious.
Well thanks for making me cry! Sheesh.
Denise, I am so sorry for your loss. I too know the pain of losing a parent as my mom lost her battle with breast cancer in September 2004. I think that you and your family have wonferful ways of honouring your mothers memory.
