An odd day
October 26th started with me remembering that this is the anniversary of my Uncle Kent’s going home to be with the Lord, just one year ago. I called my mom to talk to her and see how she was doing. His death was different from others in my life because it was someone younger, not a grandparent. I am not ready to think about parents dying.
It then was a happy day because we found out the day before that Sam’s youngest brother Justin was getting married today. We knew that he was pretty serious about Leah and he had mentioned that she was the one. He lives in Hawaii so we have not met her yet but we look forward to meeting her at Christmas. Welcome to the family Leah!
The day ended on a sad note when we found out that Sam’s Nanny passed away. She has been doing poorly and has been in a nursing home for some time. Nanny was the last living grandparent for either of us. She lived to be 95. Nanny was a strong Christian woman and we can be excited that she is with the Lord and is no longer suffering.
