Kathi, mom, momma, pretty lady...

I can't believe it's been a whole year. I am happy for her... to not have to suffer in this life full of pain and trials. Till we meet again momma: )

She looked amazing this day... I think better than me! I remember helping her pick out this outfit and shoes... It was fun shopping with mom.

Mom loved being a grandma so much!! She always held the babies hand like that close to her heart.

Mom could always make me laugh with her facial expressions and things she said!

We were pals in Memphis when Wyatt was born... that will always be such a special memory to me. It was freezing in there!

Mom always made Christmas magical... I can't wait to have my own children so I can do the same thing.

Wyatt made mom a grandma first... she was so content holding him here.

Good ol' Westcor... I spent many a time in this office listening to her talk to her tenants. My favorite was Ken... Connie, remember Ken? The Chinese man who made her feel bad for him all the time? haha!

Haha! The Flava puff cotton candy... good times: ) We were playing Settlers too!!

Such a fun, young, beautiful grandma, wife, sister, daughter, mom, and friend.

I love you all

That was so sweet! What a nice post!

And you are right... the trials and pains of this world are difficult. It's good to know that she's relieved of them.

Like you said, that was the fastest and slowest year, ever!
