My mom passed away into the arms of her beloved Lord on Sept. 23, 2010. She had been suffering with Alzheimers for about 5 years and tried to fight it with all her will. But she got tired and just gave up at the end. My kids and I were with her when she breathed her last breath. She still knew me by name and I am grateful for that. Mom was "Baba" to my kids and all their friends. She adored her grandchildren and loved spending time with them. When he was little my son preferred going to Baba's when he was sick and would cry to go to her. I was her only child and her life revolved around me and the kids. She is greatly missed and I still find my self wanting to go see her and tell her stuff. But I realize I cant. Her funeral was Sept. 30, a month ago.
There was also some very, very good news that day. After the burial we all went to my son and DIL's for a luncheon. After all the people left and we were all sitting relaxing my son handed me a little box. I shook it and thought it was a charm for my Pandora bracelet. I thought maybe a cross or something to remember mom, but when I opened it I started to cry and hug my DIL.......it was a little silver baby soother. I am going to be a grandma...oops sorry ...I am going to be a BABA......What a perfect ending to what would have been a sad day...I just cant wait for my Little Bee....
