Life Happens

As you all know Life happens!! Things happen that we have been either waiting for or they happen unexpected with family or even friends. This past week as been one of the most amazing but sad weeks as well. This past Saturday my husband and I celebrated our one year anniversary. I can’t believe that it has been a year already it has gone by so fast and it has been the best year of my life. I can’t imagine my life without jerry. He has blessed my life so much and has taught me so many things. We have grown together and each day that I spend with him I fall more and more in love with him. We are a team, we talk about things that we need to do, things that need to be bought, and we are there for each other through the hard time and the good time. We help each other grow in certain areas. Being married is great and I can’t wait for the many years to follow.

I have always been there for jerry through the things that he has gone through and that will never change. After arriving home from seeing my new niece Harper Friday night and celebrating our anniversary on Saturday I thought that I was done traveling for a while, well that is not the case. Jerry’s Grandpa has not been doing well and we all have been waiting for that dreaded call about his passing.  Sunday came and gone and Monday was upon us. Jerry calls me while I am at school and tells me that his grandpa passed away Sunday night in his sleep!! Yeah it was a sad day for us and so the end of the week we have to go up to Tooele for his funeral and spend some time with his family. His Grandpa was a Great man. He always had some advice for jerry and I went we were up there to see him. Jerry is really close with his grandparents and he will be truly missed by all. Things happen that we sometimes are not ready for. Yes we were waiting for this to happen because he was miserable and was ready to go. Sometimes we are not prepared for these things to happen and they are really hard but we have to think about how happy they are now that they are not suffering here on earth.

I am so grateful for the blessing of having the church in my life and I know that they are with our father in heaven and they were welcomed in to heaven with open arms by those who have gone on before. I am also grateful for the blessing of knowing what is going to happen in the life after this one. I am so sad that jerry’s grandpa died but am so happy that he is not suffering anymore!! This post is dedicated to all my family and friend that have passed on
