strange
My grandpa died at 2 am this morning. This is also the 1st birthday of a friend's baby. Isn't life strange?

I said goodbye to him yesterday afternoon. I heard his heavy breathing as he struggled to stay alive. I told him I loved him and I would see him in heaven, and I knew he heard me.

Asher was looking at me the whole time, grinning these huge grins.

Life is so strange.

The circle of life, my dear, the circle of life.
I'm glad you could be there with him in his last moments. I have a similar story about my grandpa when he passed, and I'll share it with you someday when I'm not at work and the tears could flow all too freely.

You are in my heart. Life is a beautiful cycle of new and old and birth and death. I remember when my grandfather was dying, we were all waiting for my cousin's baby to be born (she was overdue). We sat in the hospital filled with grief and sadness and joy and hope.

As always you are in my prayers.
