A thank you note to my grandma

Dear Grandma,

 I'm celebrating my birthday by writing thank you notes to people who I appreciate in my life. You went to heaven on Oct. 14 at 5:15 am. In earthly time it's been 2 weeks. You talked about heaven on a daily basis and have longed to be there for so many years. When Grandpa died your longing only deepened and grew stronger. You experienced pain in your life on a level I never fully understood but you always knew that true healing would come in heaven. How does it feel? You are whole for the first time and you are walking and talking with Jesus. It's more than I can fathom.

I am so grateful for the support you've always given me. When I was growing up you and Grandpa came to almost all of my volleyball games, choir concerts, church programs, and performances of any kind. I didn't think my games could officially start without you and grandpa in the sitting up in the stands. You were unpredictable in many ways but I knew I could always depend on you showing up in my life.

Thank you most of all for my dad. He is the best kind of man. He makes my world make sense.

I love you Grandma.

love, beth
