Happy Birthday Grandpa!

Wow! It will be 3 months this Saturday since my Grandpa received his healing, as he entered into Heaven.. March 17th 2012 my Grandpa would have celebrated his 72nd birthday! He loved his birthday! He loved everyone’s birthdays. He would walk around the house singing “Happy Birthday to meee!”..

This will be our families first time not to have him here to celebrate.
Gosh how we miss him so much! I miss his voice..
He would call me on the phone, and leave me a voice mail, He would say “Hey Mija, this is your GRAAANDPAAA, and I am fixin to cook some meat, so come eat”!

I miss his laugh! He was always laughing,.. I think the hardest thing for me, has been seeing my grandma, and looking behind her to see where my grandpa is. Cause they were always together.. Like I forget that he is not here with us anymore. She misses her best friend. But she has really amazed us, with how well she has been doing. Still Smiling..

To be honest, I was dreading his birthday coming up, I figured the family would be sad, and we would tip toe around the fact that it is my grandpa’s birthday. But, my little brother Jess had a great idea. He has invited the family over to his house for a cook out on the 17th, we are going to celebrate my grandpa’s birthday the way he would have loved to do it. Lots of food, Lots of Family, Lots of laughs! I know my grandpa is smiling up in Heaven and proud of his precious grandson Jessie for thinking of him like this. Darn that Jessie, he was always the favorite grand kid, guess he will still hold that Title!



Happy 72nd Birthday Grandpa..
