Grandma Eileen Thompson

My dear grandmother passed away this morning. I am so happy that she is now pain free, at peace with the Lord our Savior, and with her husband. Yet, of course, I am so sad and grieving the loss. It is hard for me to put my thoughts into words. I am so incredibly thankful that I got to see Grandma twice while we were in California for Christmas. The visits were very brief yet they were so special and I feel so blessed that I was able to tell her how much I love her. She was able to meet her little namesake, Reagan Eileen and got to see Katya too. I look forward to telling my girls about meeting their great grandma Eileen when they are older.

I will do a longer, tribute post to Grandma in a few weeks, after her funeral. The celebration of her life will be next Wednesday and Thursday; I am very much hoping to go but I am still trying to work out the details.
