More sadness here...

More sadness here...

While we were thinking about sweet Sprout and her family over the weekend, the PM received news that her Grammie had died. She had lived a long life and everyone knew it was coming soon but the family is still very upset. The Nanny was with Grammie her final night and took care of her after she died. She was the anchor in that family and everyone is kind of lost and traumatized right now. The PM has been thinking about both Sprout and her Grammie. One lived only 3 months and the other 1085 months and they both will leave a tremendous hole in their families lives and no one was ready to see them leave. You can think you are totally prepared for someone to die but you really aren't.

The funeral is tomorrow. We hope to be back visiting everyone at the end of this week.

Some early fall blooms for Grammie. We love you. May you be with Grampie now and all of your dear cats and dogs that have come before.
