(Jordyn finds a picture of my and my Grandma Kramer while we are cleaning out the computer room...)
Jordyn: "Mommy, look - it's a picture of me...and my grandma!"
Me: "No, it's a picture of ME...and MY grandma!"
Jordyn: "Oh! Look, you have blonde hair like me."
Me: "Yes, I did when I was little"
Jordyn: "Mommy, where's your Grandma live?"
Me: "Well, she did live in Iowa...but she went to Heaven a long time ago."
Jordyn: "She went to Heaven?"
Me: "Yes, when I was a little girl"
Jordyn: "Oh...do you miss your Grandma in Heaven?"
For some reason...hearing her say that really hit me hard.
Me: "I sure do...I wish you could have met her"
Jordyn: "Yeah, me too." ... "Look, she has shoes just like my Grandma!" (she did)
And then she was on to something else...finding a picture of her, me and my mom...but first she propped up the picture so we could look at it.
Grandma Kramer, I sure wish I could have known you longer...I miss you.
