11. Ina May turns 92

Today we went to Payson to celebrate Steve's grandma (my kids great grandma) 92 birthday. What an amazing thing it was to see most of her family gathered around to honor her and her life. Her body definitely looked old and yet she looked so beautiful and radiant. I got a glimpse of what it must be like to be at the very end of your life. Once she was in the same stage I am rushing around, feeling like you are in the thick of things. Now she spends most her time all alone and the clock on the wall is probably very noisy. Truly relationships and family are all that matter. Her younger sister (who was in her late 80s) was sitting next to her and they were chatting like teenagers. I was imagining my little Bria and Greta doing the same thing and felt the importance of teaching my children to love one another. God bless Ina May and the great example she has set.
