On Saturday we had one of those sad yet peaceful days. Mike's Grandma Jenson passed away on Wednesday and there was a beautiful service for her on Saturday. All her children shared precious memories of their mom and then all grandchildren sang I am a Child of God. The rain waited to fall until we left the grave site and even though we are very sad that her smiling face is gone from this life, we feel very peaceful. The knowledge of eternal families is definitely the reason that we can feel peace at this time where her sickness made her deteriorate quickly. We were able to see her in the hospital last Sunday and even though it was hard for her to talk we got her to laugh a bit and of course shared some loving words. She always brightened up when the great-grandkids came. She will be greatly missed, but we know that she has many loved ones, as well as a son that passed away at a young age, that she can be with now until we see her again.
