Memorial Day







We brought flowers out to the cemeteries on Memorial Day weekend. Griffin was so sweet, he noticed that his Great Grandma Jean had lots of flowers by her headstone, but other grandmas had none. He was really disappointed that we didn't have more flowers, so we decided that Grandma Jean would be glad to share hers. We told Griffin he could move them to another headstone, he found one (which I bet was a grandma!) and said, "Is this my grandma?" and we replied, "No." and He said, "Ok!" and put the flowers down. What a thoughtful boy.

We brought flowers to Griffin's Uncle Jordy's grave and Griffin pointed out that the photo was of Jordy right away. Then we played at the nearby park. We knew Jordy was looking own on us playing. I am sure he is proud of Griffin! Earlier in the day Hunter and Griffin were playing around the tree planted in Jordy's honor, they were trying to throw a ball up into its branches. I watched in wonder, thinking that in a way, they were playing with Jordy.
