My sweet Mimi

My beautiful Mimi, I miss her more and more everyday. I've cried a lot lately.. I hate to admit it but every time I see sweet little old ladies it makes me so sad and so jealous. I wasn't ready for this. She was so young, only 75. I needed her.. I needed her to see me walk down the isle to Chad one day, I needed her to be my babies amazing Great-Grandmother (like her Mom was to me-my Nana) one day. I needed her to show me the woman I aspire to be. She was one of the most amazing women I've ever had the chance of knowing, and I'm so blessed I was able to call her my Grandmother. She never met a stranger and treated everyone equally. She was so strong in her faith and had such an amazing relationship with Jesus. I know it's selfish of me, but I miss her so so much. But I am so thankful she is in heaven, no longer in any pain, cancer free, with Nana and Pop and my sweet Taylor. I can't wait to see them all again someday and meet my Pop.
And my sweet Grandpa.. it breaks my heart to see him alone.. They got married when Mimi was 19.. How do you love someone that long, as happy as they were and then have to be alone. I can't imagine.
