My Aunt / Godmother essentially lost her battle to Leukemia right before Thanksgiving, and while words can not properly describe the beautiful person she was - both inside and out - nor the pain we feel in having her no longer on this Earth with us, it brings tremendous peace to me knowing that my kiddos and I now have such a precious angel looking over us. Or as a friend of hers said, she's now in Heaven playing the slots with her sister.
Who knows how long it will take before it starts to sink in that she is actually gone, but until then I like to think she's just a phone call, or a mountain drive, away.
Our prayer card had the most touching prayer on it. I'll have to take it out of my wallet and post it ... it honestly was perfect.
Until we meet again...
On a lighter note, my cousin (her daughter) had a pretty brunch for her following the funeral. I couldn't stop laughing when I reached into my purse on the drive home and pulled out three sticks of butter. Clearly my clepto son was concerned about his next meal.
