Granny's gone and done it again

Granny, it just seems so unreal

That's what I told H2o earlier today. I'm just waiting for him to come in the front door or wake up so I can get him out of bed.

That's what I told H2o earlier today. I'm just waiting for him to come in the front door or wake up so I can get him out of bed.

I kept thinking he would walk down the hall to me, open the front door, or I would hear the closet door gently shut as he would try his hardest to be quiet when undressing. He had worked swing for years. I would be in bed when he got home.
Then the sick days would come to mind. ..Time to get his meds. Time to get him ready for bed. So much more as you know.
But Austin and Bronwyn were cramped like Sardines downstairs with now 2 children.
He had been gone 4 years. It was time to move and it wasn't going to cost me anything because the kids would be making any house payments on a bigger place. It happened fast. I love having a smaller garden area now. For both the flowers and veggies.
I know those feelings Granny. Trust me, Time does help. Yes, feelings still come out of no where and I do cry, but not nearly like before in the beginning.

Granny, after Calvin died I would find myself looking up, ready to tell him something I'd just thought of, or something funny I wanted to share with him, only to remember .... oh, I can't. It hurt all over again, every time. I slept with a full laundry basket on his side of the bed for weeks so there would be weight there and the bed would not feel empty. Everything hurt. There's a hole in the world when a loved one dies and nothing can fill it. I know. Cynthia knows, too. My heart hurts for you, Granny.

Good morning? It's 4:30 a.m. and I lie here awake, alone in the night. When this happens I usually just pray for whoever comes to mind, or go over my prayer list and pray for everyone on it. I'm thinking of you this morning, Granny.
