A Smile for my Grandpa

-This Photo Taken by Patrick Wanta

Where to begin Gramps...  I guess with I miss you.  Life has to complete a circle and we were so blessed to have you for the time that we did, I get it.  I don't have to like it.  Tonight while working on my new site, I opened up itunes to see what to put up there, and started typing in the search for jack johnson, and as I mistakenly typed in jo, Josh Groban came up and I just couldn't help (as you have been on my mind this week) but to listen to "Up to Where you Are".   I knew it would make me cry...I can't help but cry...well A. because it is a beautiful song, and B. because it makes me think of you.

 Almost a year has gone by, my daughter is walking, talking, and makes me smile daily.  I wish you were here, I wish she could hear you call her mama Shelley Beaner.  I know you can see my baby girl and are watching over us.   I know she makes you laugh too.  I can still hear you telling me Take Care of my Beautiful baby as you held her in the picture above.   I'm doing my best :).  Keep watching over us.

My blog is typically to share my pictures, which are a piece of me, how I see things, how big of a deal it is to me to get that great picture that a friend, family, new friend will always remember.  I guess...now my blog is going to share more of me.  Not really what I had planned...but you can't plan everything right?  It will be a year this week that he is gone, and he is a piece of me too.   I hope you enjoyed the pictures.
