Laugh to keep from crying. Good advice, Leigh.

Loved gramma- I think she enjoyed Neigbors attention- but didn’t want him to have to lose someone special. She didn’t like morning and didn’t want him to mourn her- sad but sweet.

Beautiful story. Wish Hippy Grandmother still visited with Hippy Charlie though. Might keep her spirit up.

Granddaughter did, too.

I admire Hippy Grandmother, though, for I believe she believes she is sparing them both the pain of the type goodbyes they’ve already said.
