grandmas

Yoda lost both of her grandmothers last night.  One 34 years ago, and the other has been gone just hours.

It would be easy to sit here and ruminate - to be upset for everything that she will never have, so instead, while Rico is in Florida (he made it just in time to say goodbye), Yoda and I will go celebrate Grandmas.  I will take her to the library and read her as many books as she wants, let her eat extra cookies, rock her a little longer at naptime, play peek-a-boo instead of folding the laundry. 

Today I will love her in all of the ways they want to - and never could.

I am thankful that Rico made it in time to say goodbye. It's got to be hard to be apart right now. I think your plan with Yoda sounds like an awesome way to honor her grandmas. Hang in there, my friends.
