Sorry everyone

I am not myself today. I am happy for all the dorky letters this weekend on PFB. My stepmom died last week, and my Gram passed last night.She was my dads mom, and because my father and his family are estranged I got to be the go between, which wasn't fun. After 3 strokes in 8 days, she finally passed in her sleep last night and I am so glad. I don't want her to be in pain, and I know that we will miss her. My sweet Sarah hugged me and said " I will miss cookies Mommy." Every Christmas my Gram and my aunt made about 150 dozen sugar cookies, in the most amazing shapes, decorated with colored sugars. My favorites were the Santas with the raisin eyes and coconut beards. My oldest made her sisters vow that when she left for school this year she would get cookies saved. I had to make the rule several years ago that the package couldn't be opened except by a parent, because the UPS man delivers while I am gone, and POOF! about a dozen cookies disappear.When my girls were little, she made them matching nighties and underwear for Christmas every year, and my girls have the most amazing Barbie clothes collections, because sewing was her other forte'- and I am the only grandchild to inherit it.Thanks to all those to sent me a msg. to boost my spirits-
