In remembrance...

Of my Aunt. It seems like just yesterday she was in the hospital and we were all going to visit her. My house was the central station, so lots of kids got dropped off and picked up so my family could see her. I remember my husband saying this place is a zoo!
I remember riding in the elevator up to see her in this strage place that I had never been before. Seeing my cousin as I walked into the waiting room, going to see her for the first time and not believing that it was really her. Hollie running out of the room cause she could stand to see her mother like that. Chasing her, falling down in my lap in the hallway asking Jesus for help, and understanding.
In ten days she was gone, and I remember getting the phone call to say my "goodbyes".
Now all I have are my pictures and memories.



I was digging in my junk drwaer and found the pieces of information that all the ladies at my bridal shower wrote to me, giving me a piece of marriage advice. Hers was in there. I read it cried kissed the page and rubbed it on my face, trying to get just a little piece of her next to me.

I was dusting my shelf the other day and got confonted with a pictureof her and I. I had to stop and kiss her face. I miss you Aunt Robin. But I know this life is not the end! I will see her again!!!
I can only imagine what she is doing, what it will be like....
And now here I am an entire year later still missing her the same. Still knowing I will see her again. And still remembering.
