...its been a long time coming....




for those of you who didn't know, my Grandpa passed away this past week. he's been ill for awhile now, and just recently really went downhill. its been a long week for my family-and on top of the month of moving into the new studio that i've just had-its been an all around long month and a half for me.

it was, as it always is, to let him go. i don't feel like i've had near enough time with him-even though its been 26 years! and Ethan only got to know him just a little bit! yesterday was the funeral and that was the hardest part. knowing that its finally over and we finally have to say goodbye for the very last time. on top of my feelings for it it was 100 times harder for my mom. and seeing my mom in that much pain made me hurt that much more.


this is a poem that is perfect for my Grandpa.


God saw he was getting tired
And a cure was not to be,
So He put His arms around him
And whispered, "Come with Me"

With tearful eyes we watched him suffer
And saw him fade away,
Although we loved him dearly
We could not make him stay.

A golden heart stopped beating
Hard working hands to rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.
