G G (great grandmother) has always been a big part of my life since I was a baby. I remember growing up down the street from her and getting to go stay the night with her. When I would go stay the night with her we would stay up real late playing on the organ and the piano and singing, talking, playing dominos, what ever we wanted to do. And when we got tired we would sleep on the living room floor in front of the big window. That is where we always slept. It was so much fun. She would always make us cookies, and angel food cake every time I would stay with her. We did lots of cool things. I remember I use to always and still do when she is having a good day telling her that she was my sexy grandmother. I would also tell her that I was having to fight away all the men away because I wanted to keep her for myself. She has been a great influence in my life and to Heath since he has known her. She really loves to pick on Heath every time she sees him, and she loves it that he will pick back at her. I am going to miss her! My son will never know her most likely, but I am going to tell him all about her and Mema. She has taught me so much in my lifetime and even though she has been having a hard time lately she still manages to teach me something new almost every time that I see her. She has really been struggling lately with dying. I pray everyday that the Lord will take her home, because she is so ready to go and has been for a long time. I know he is not ready for her yet, but he will take her when he is ready. She always tells me when I leave that she will see me tomorrow Lord willing. She has been seeing things or people that we can not see and when she does see something you can tell because she will get the biggest grin on her face. I will be happy for her when she goes home to see the Lord, but I will be very sad also because I will miss seeing and talking to her almost everyday. I have gone and sat with her during my lunch hours, late at night, early in the morning, and after work. I enjoy every minute that I get to spend with her even if we don't get to talk. On her bad days sometimes you just have to sit there and hold her hand while she tries to get relief and sleep, but I still cherish those moments deeply. She loves for somebody to be holding her hand. She always asks me everytime she sees me about the baby and when he is going to get here. She tells me that when I finish the baby room she is going to come out to my house in her Cadillac (her wheelchair) and see the room. She also tells me that when my son gets here she is going to come see him. I tell her that when my son gets here I will bring him to see her so she won't have to get out to come see him. She just grins and says ok I will let you do that. She does a good job in keeping everybody in line that takes care of her at least that is what she tells me and I believe her. She told me once that she has these fits just to keep them on their toes and don't forget about her. She is a wonderful Christian lady and I love her dearly. I will miss her.
