I will post our 4th of July pics this week, but today I wanted to take time out to think about my Granny Frannie, who has been sick for a few weeks! I can not begin to explain how blessed I have been to have my grandma in my life (and now my kids) for 33 years! Not many people get to watch their grandma hold their child, let alone 2 of their children.
Here are a few of my fave pics:
I have so many stories about my grandma. In fact, I was making the bed this weekend and it reminded me of how my grandma taught me to make a bed...and I was teaching Abigail to do it like great-grandma does it! Or I could be at Woodfield and remember how she'd meet me at the mall and walk SO FAST that I couldn't keep up with her....and always bought me the best clothes (except maybe the time she bought me the leather outfit from Merry Go Round...my parents made me return it...apparently my grandma was cooler than my parents ;) ). Or how we'd sleepover and watch Golden Girls and she'd make us the BEST eggs for breakfast! Or when I worked a few blocks away from her for 6 years so I had my weekly visits with her and she'd always get Subway for us or we'd head to the corner restaurant where they had her favorite waffles! She has been a HUGE part of my entire life. (And apparently we eat alot together too!)
My grandma has been having a few really rough weeks. We are praying for her everyday, especially the days I can't see her!!!! We are praying for peace, comfort, and for her to know she is loved more than anything!
"Boom...Boom...Boom!"

Apparently Great Grandma's bed-making skills are impressive. Over the weekend when I was making my bed, Abigail said to me "Nana do you make your bed like Great Grandma makes her bed?" YIKES...I need help.
clearly abigail needs to teach me!
:)
great tribute. hope she is doing better...
Granny Franny did make the very best eggs! Somehow eggs and toast/jelly was so impressive!!! We love you Grandma Fran!
