It's Grandma's birthday today...although her soul is infinity now (or maybe always has been)! She almost made it to today..just 4 weeks too short. oh well. We can celebrate here and know she is watching us, maybe even laughing at how we celebrate our years here on this mortal, decaying, sad earth and thinking about how if we only knew how much better eternal life is.
You know we seemed to get so bummed out with the older we get, but maybe we should be happier, like it is a count to being closer to something else, something better. I don't know.
But anyway, birthdays, i feel, are also a celebration of someone's life-who they are to us and a reminder to them and ourselves how grateful we are that that person exists in our life.
So anyway, here is the Slide-Show I made for her funeral. I wasn't sure how else to get it up on here without using youtube because it is such a large file. Enjoy!
Here's to Martha Lois Winter! Happy Birthday! We love and miss you!
