It's hard to believe that it has been six months since my Gram passed.  The last few weeks I have been having moments when I feel the need to call her.  I saw a recipe that called for chicken thighs and I don't prefer the taste of them so I thought to myself, Gram would know if I could substitute for chicken breast.  Gram knew all.  There was no subject off limits with her.  She was an open book.  She was old school, but so ahead of her time.  Nothing shocked her and she didn't judge anyone.  2020 changed a lot in people and it doesn't seem to be a good change.  I miss the days when Gram would say someone was just being a "Dang Fool". Gram never said a bad word but that was her common "cursing" phrase.  

I was lucky that I got to speak to her before and during her transition into the next life.  I told her that I was never more thankful for anyone in my life.  She taught me resiliency, to have a good heart, and that love transcends time and distance.  I am fortunate for that.  For all of you that haven't gotten the chance to hear "I love you" one more time. This is for you.
