Ryan's maternal Grandmother, Marjorie, passed away peacefully last night after her battle with cancer. We love her and she will be missed. We are so happy that she is no longer in any physical pain.
Ryan and I were able to live close to Grandma for about 9 months. It was shortly after Isaac was born and we often took him on walks to her house. We would stop and chat with her for awhile and she was always so welcoming and pleased to see us. She loved to hold Isaac and diagnose all his baby problems--whether it be how he had a wet "nappy" (diaper) or a "windy" (burp) that was making him uncomfortable. Her South African accent was the greatest and I am thankful that we were able to get to know her better during that time. We only wish we had gone on more walks to see her and learned more about her life, and that we had taken the time to photograph her with our children.
Our thoughts and prayers are with our family members back home--we wish we could be there with you during this sacred time. We love you!
