.being loved. Grama Reichert




































What a blessing it has been to have grown up with such an awesome Grandmother.  It is with a grateful heart that Grama when home last week at the age of 102.  We celebrated her this last weekend.  Thank you for understanding and allowing me the time to be with my family.  It was clear from all the tears and laughs that we had that she had a long life and was loved deeply. 
Here are some of Grams famous lines:
.Keep on Keeping on!
.Eat, Eat, Eat!
.Love you to pieces and glue you back together.
.I love you a bushel and a peck, a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck
.Love me, love my dog!
.I'm so hungry I could eat a horse and chase the driver.
.If you don't do it right the first time, when will you have time to do it over?
.Oh, Crum!
.If I only have this much room in heaven, I'll be happy.

I'm confident that Gram has more room in heaven than she could of ever imagined.  I am so thankful that she was mine and that she loved us so much.  Thank you for instilling love, faith, strength, and laughter into our home. 
Here are some photo's from her most recent birthdays.  At 102nd birthday, even though her eyes were closed she could still sing her favorite songs, tap her feet to the music and eat cake!  Save me a spot Gram!
