Goodbye to you

Today and tomorrow we will celebrate the life of my grandma. I feel fortunate that Lily and I were able to get back to say goodbye. The day before she passed Lily insisted on giving her three kisses and the smile on my grandma's face was all I could ask for. I got to say all those things you wish you could say. Grandma, my second mom, I love you so much!  Today I remember you telling us to quit farting around, making us soup when we were sick, egg fights for Easter, naming the cows that you would eventually butcher, picking strawberries and eating them on your steps while you told me to save some to sell, and your barn cats; kitsy, trixy, and bitsy. My life was better because of you.
