A precious memory

We were just at the funeral of my kids great-grandmother. She lived a long and full life. We sat in the back trying to follow the service and keep the kids from bothering any one sitting around us. All-in-all they did a terrific job at being quiet.

The thing I wanted to share occurred during the middle of the service when I was about to walk out since Emalee's stillness was at an end and my patience was quickly unravelling. The preacher had just finished a spiel about Kathleen and someone started singing a song... Emalee turned and said to me "I know what he was saying - She was a princess!"

Wow, out of the mouth of babes! She was a "princess" indeed.

May Kathleen rest in peace and all that mourn her recall the happiest of memories.
