a GREAT good-bye

We were saddened by the passing of Jeremiah and Andrew's great-grandmother Zimmerman on Saturday, February 11. Great-grandma was 95 years old and we were so blessed for the boys to have had her in their lives, even if just for a few years.

We traveled north to be with Daddy's family for the services. The boys behaved very well at the services and lightened the mood a bit, when needed. Leave it to one of them to say something silly! Andrew had a special comment for uncle Matt while he was picking out a tie. "Looks good, buddy!"And, although we were brought together for a sad occassional, it is special to see them interact with their grandparents, aunts and uncles.

Jeremiah has taken a special liking to Caitlin and even made her a few valentine's cards. He also spent much of one of the days deep in to paper, scissors and glue to create a board game of some sort. Jeremiah also made a special drawing for great-grandmother that we placed with her.
