Gone Home


My beautiful Grandma went to heaven on Monday, she is finally at rest, spending eternity with her Lord & Saviour! I will forever remember my Grandma for the amazing woman that she was, she was my Gramps backbone, they were nothing without each other, the relationship they shared is something i strive for in my marriage. When i went to say goodbye to Grandma on Sunday night i held her hand, i remember when Grandma & Gramps were still on the farm & Grandma would pull our socks on or off for us & her dry scratchy hands would tickle our feet, how I love those dry scratchy hands, they remind me of so many fun times at the farm, they were hands that new hard work, new the love of the land, new how to make a scones like no other! I pray that my little girls children one day see in my hands all the things i saw in my Grandma's, safety, love, fun, discipline, warmth, peace, security, wisdom, knowledge, i could go on forever i think, she was a lady of such dignity, i did not, do not respect my Grandma because she demanded it, i respect her because she earned it, i don't think anyone could meet my grandma and not respect her, she was a lady of her word, a faithful lady. I will miss her, but i thank God that i will meet her again in heaven one day.

Fishing


Rock fishing with Daddy at Apollo Bay, well actually "rock holding a fishing rod" with Daddy, no fish biting! Made for a very nervous mummy! But a very happy Baby & Daddy, good times!
