Today would have been your Grandma Becky's 43rd birthday. Last year on this day I wrote a post dedicated to her. You were still growing in your mommy's tummy at the time, a thought more than a reality. When I go back and read that post I feel the sadness that I have always felt this time of year. This year is different, this year we have you. Yes, I am sad, but my sadness is less sharp. Thank you for that, baby girl. You have brought us so much joy and given my heart some peace. I am looking forward to watching you grow up, of sharing all your milestones, and teaching you about your Grandma and what an amazing woman she was!

Happy Birthday Becky. I love you and miss you. You would be so very proud of your girls and your beautiful grandbaby. Rest in peace my friend.
I had to go back and read the lovely tribute to your friend and husband's cousin. These types of anniversaries are never easy, but I think they have a way of bringing our loves ones into our thoughts and they feel more present. I am sure she is looking down and enjoying her lovely grandbaby. I wish you peace in knowing that the love you shared in this life continues. Hugs to you.
