We Miss You Granny


Tomorrow will mark the one year anniversary of my Granny Ramsey's passing. I can't believe it's been a year since I got the phone call in the middle of the night from my dad saying, "Baby, Granny is gone." Seems like everytime I answered the phone last year, it was a family member telling me someone had passed away.




I miss her so much. She was the rock who held our family together. Honestly, I think she would be rolling in her grave at some of the choices a few family members have made in the last year. But I'm not here to judge what they are or aren't doing. I can only focus on my husband and children and know that I've done right when I go to bed at night.




There are so many memories of Granny that I couldn't possibly put it all in one blog. She was loved by all and loved anyone who came waltzing through her door. She made her home welcome to anyone at anytime. I loved being able to jump in the car on a Saturday morning and drive the 2 hours to her house with the girls and just hanging out with Granny. I never had to make an appointment to visit. Surprising her with my visits were the best.




She was a wonderful Great Grandmother to my girls. I loved calling her on the phone and saying, "So you want to hear a funny Brookie story?" or saying, "So you want to hear what Brailey did now?" I absolutely LOVED hearing her laugh so hard that she couldn't stand it. She was at the hospital when I had both the girls and it meant so much to me that she sacrificied being away from my ailing grandpa to come see her oldest great granddaughter being born.




I know she is having the time of her life right now being able to see Papa, Pee Wee, Eddie, Gloria, Bonnie and all the other people who passed on and were so precious to her.




We love and miss you, Granny!!!
