Lost

In the past 2 days we have lost some very special things. And by lost, I don't mean misplaced...I mean lost forever...to a better place.  Ethan's baby turtle named Lucky passed away on May 29th. Ethan named him Lucky after he and my Dad found him in my Dad's backyard. We knew he was very lucky to have not been picked up by a raccoon or other creature. Ethan loved that little turtle. He would sit with Lucky all the time and watch TV with him.  Ethan has been very sad since he died.  R.I.P Lucky

On May 30th, my littlest boy Isaac lost his first tooth (sniff sniff). He not only lost a tooth, but he lost a piece of his baby-hood. It's bitter sweet not having a tiny baby in the house and to see my boys growing up so fast. Here is Isaac moments after he lost his tooth...

Also on May 30th, I lost my very special Grandma. I have lots of wonderful memories of her. She was probably one of the funniest people I have known. I am so glad I had the opportunity to visit her last year. Even though her mind wasn't with her, her sense of humor was. She had me laughing so hard, it was easy to forget how sick she was. The world lost a very funny and special person. We miss you a lot Grandma but we know that you are up above, making my Mom laugh.

This next picture makes me laugh.  There was a document that my Grandma needed to sign so we gave her the paper and a pen. We all started talking and after a few minutes we realized my Grandma was still signing her name.  We look over and she was fast asleep!
