...my papaw, a few great uncles & aunts, a few friends from high school, a few members of my church family....
but my gran....she knows a lot of people in heaven.....most of her sisters & brothers, her parents, her aunts & uncles, her grandparents, lots of friends, her sweetheart.....
she's not long for this world. it's a phrase i've heard (& probably even said) before....but right now it's ricocheting around in my heart. it brings tears to my eyes & an ache to my stomach. it makes my soul cringe.
she has pnuemonia....which really isn't much....she IS the strongest woman i've EVER known....and it's not what makes me think her time with us is short....
it's the way she has about her right now....her stories of days & people gone by....she told me a story about an older brother of hers who died at the age of 25.....in my 29 years that was the first i'd ever heard of paul. i miss him she said. but i'll miss you! i thought these kids aren't raised yet! i can't do that without you! there's so much more i have to learn from you...i'm not done.
please pray for my gran....and me....and God's will....

Oh Heidi - I so understand! I was crazy about my Nannie and I hated thinking of her not being here with me anymore, but she was so excited to see my grandfather and her mama... I will pray hard for you!
