After a long miserable few years Brent's mom passed away the day after Mother's day. We were so thankful that Brent could go spend Mother's day with her and that she was alert and talking and could enjoy the afternoon. Since Brent was all ready up in Heber with his Dad the kids and I drove up for the funeral. It was fun to see all the cousins and the funeral went really well. We appreciated all the support and love from family and friends and we are thankful Grandma Weight isn't suffering any more. She really fought hard to be around for a few more memories with the grand kids and we appreciated her selflessness in her fight.
Grandma Weight has a cupboard in her kitchen and it is always filled with treats. After the funeral we went back to the house and Creed went straight for the cupboard. We didn't even know he knew about the treat cupboard. It was comforting and funny to know that she lives on in our kids memories....even if it is just in a treat cupboard or a beanie baby cupboard...even this 2 year old knows his Grandma loved and still loves him.
The solo adult car ride with 4 kids and no dvd players was mercifully uneventful.
The cupboard that says I love you....
