I have been thinking more about how I can best honor these people who meant so much to me.
A few ideas are rolling around in my head and it is picking up some steam.
I will soon have a basic formula in mind and go from there to formulate an All Natural Perfume designed in honor of my Grandparents. I am calling it "L & R - ' Let me call you Sweetheart ' " after their special love song.
Mom is helping me to brainstorm by reminding me what their favorite things were. I remembered most of them, but she reminded me that as much as Grandma LOVED flowers - Grandpa got headaches around them and called them stinking weeds - LOL

Saturday is hubby's last day at work. I was supposed to be today, but they are letting him go in for half a day on Saturday (they also let him work 20 hours of overtime this week) so we can get a head start on our bills for next month. After that - I don't know how we will do it, but we will manage - I always do thanks to the many lessons that my Grandparents taught me.
I am so gratful that I had time with them and that they instilled in me the lessons that they had learned while living and raising kids through...
