Actually my grandfather died in 1996 and my grandmother just died earlier this year. I am a bit jelous of people whose grandparents are still alive. I wasn't that close to this set. My dad's mother lived here, so we grew up going over there all the time. She the one who taught me how to bake. Lemon Merigue reminds me of her. She passed away in 1999 just a few weeks before I found out I was pregnant with Meike.
I don't know what I will do when we start lossing parents and siblings. I hope it doesn't happen for a very, very long time.

I've been to Maine! My brother used to live in portland,it was in the late summer,but it was very beautiful then to,and i've seen his videos of it in all seasons,he also lived in rockport,but didn't get a chance to visit him there. I love the autumn,and the winter days,where its really sunny ,crisp and there is snow on the mountain tops.

I don't have any siblings to worry about, but you're right, losing my parents is a really scary thought. I guess you never outgrow your need for them! I'm also dreading the loss of my grandma. I'm so close to her, and she has colon cancer. She had surgery a year ago September, but they didn't get it all, so even though she's doing fine now I know it will inevitably make her very sick again.

turn this into a sad, depressing post. Sorry Kree about your Grandmother. Cherish your time with her.
I named Madeline after the grandmother that lived around her. I figured that was part of remembering her. She had alzhimers for quite a while. I will also pass on my memories of her. We probable will never move so my girls can enjoy both sets of grandparents and have memories of their own.
