Praying for you guys!

I am so sorry for your loss.

 

[that's nice]

Thanks to all for posting. I guess to bring it full circle- my sister had her baby today.. a healthy baby girl- 6lbs 11oz. I am an uncle and Juliana was so excited that it was a girl. My sister had a rough few days so we will visit tomorrow.

I still haven't forgot about this TR and it will be finished soon. I'm heading off to work but I HOPE to have something tomorrow night. I have a PTR to start that will be like no other trip I have planned before.

Congratulations on your niece! My DD13 was born 1 hour after my brother-in-law's mom died. We said the same as you...one life leaving ushered in a new life.

Tim-
Quite the roller coaster of emotions. Our condolences on your loss and congratulations on your gain. Take all the time you need. We'll be here when ever you get a chance.

Tim, while it is hard to lose "grandma", we know that she had a full life, and now you have a new niece to continue on with a full life. We are here for you whenever you need to talk. And we look forward to your TR and I can't wait to hear about the PTR (does this mean the dates have been selected?).

Congrats, Uncle Tim! Enjoy all those newborn moments with your sister!

Did Melody end up going to FL??

It is amazing how He works. I can't wait to see my niece tomorrow.

Thanks Barry. I'm actually shocked no pirates have taken over this TR yet.

UMMMMMM not exactly. They told us we would find out in July if we were going Dec.1. When I spoke to Juliana's granter the other day, she told us there will be no conformation until OCTOBER! UGGGGGGGGGGG

Congrats, Uncle Tim! Enjoy all those newborn moments with your sister!

Did Melody end up going to FL??

We will be visiting my sis in the morning.

Melody is here and she is trying to plan some type of service for her g-ma here next week. There is family here that cannot make the trek to Florida. Those details should be ironed out tomorrow.

That's really sweet of Mel to spearhead this! When my Gma passed away in June, we had a VERY small family thing at my parents' home where we just talked about her. It was very endearing and just what she would have wanted. I think it's really important for those who can't go to have some sort of closure and way to remember her well.

After my grandmother's service in Feb, we all went back to a nearby aunt's house and had an ice cream party (ice cream was her fave dessert and she was always saying "There's always room for ice cream!". I hope she is able to get others together. It's the silver lining.

Congrats to your sister! As you know, baby girls are tons of fun.

 

[TarzansKat]

Congratulations on your niece! And at the risk of sounding trite, which is not at all my intent, it really is a great big circle of life. We lose and we gain.

So Sorry Tim and Congrats as well!
My DD paige was born 1 year to the day after my Grandpa died. He was a wonderful person and her being born has turned that awful day into something wonderful.

I'm so sorry to hear about Mel's grandmother but happy at the new blessing of a niece!

It's shocking how long i've been off the boards really, have lots to catch up on and looking forward to reading more of this at the weekend but just wanted to say hi and send hugs to you all from jolly old England xx

 

[KatMark]

Hoping you will be sharing pictures of your new niece after you see her this morning.

 

[Emma's Dad]

Late this morning Mel's grandmother passed away. There was family with her at the time and said she went peacefully back to Him. She is now free of all the pain she was experiencing.

Of course, Melody is very upset and was just looking again at flights this morning to fly down to see her at the end of the week. She hasn't spoken to her grandfather yet.

I will be back on later today but I wanted to thank everyone for thinking and praying for her.

So much to happen in so little time! We are keeping your family in our prayers.
