Great Grandma Wam...

My Great Grandma, also known as Wam, went home to heaven this afternoon. This picture is from her 100th birthday that we celebrated in October with a halloween party. She always loved seeing all 5 of her great-great grandchildren in their costumes. She had an incredible 100 years. Just a few things I will always remember about Wam:
1. Her strawberry jello ice cream salad.
2. Sunday night dinners.
3. Orange Circus Peanut candy
4. Christmas Eves and the "year" sign we would have our picture taken in front of.
5. The way she would lovingly stare at our kids and just take such joy in everything they did.
6. How much she loved when Brooklyn would push her wheelchair down to the dining room at the nursing home.

We love you, Wam!

Wow...100 years is an incredible life. I'm sure she had some great stories to tell!! So sorry that so much is happening at once in your life. Hang in there! Remember what this season is really about: Jesus coming to earth so that we don't have to go through these trials alone!
