Goodbye, Lola.

I’m sure you’re there with Lolo now :)

Don’t worry, your kids will be okay.

Please watch over me also — but not too close!! Don’t visit too often :)

You will be missed.

I actually thought I was ready for this, but when the news hit me, it hit me real hard. I never got to say that I appreciated her being in my life somehow. I do hope she knows. I pray that she knows that I always wanted to make her proud. I hope that she knows I am thankful she raised my dad that way.

From now on, I’ll make it a point to show how much I value and appreciate the people I have in my life.

We can never tell what the future holds. The time is now, after all.
