Grandma Carie moved into my mom's house earlier this year in order to keep her safe, as she was forgetting to take her medicine, missing meals and falling more often. The move away from living independently has been an emotional one for Grandma. Last month, the final step was completed as we cleaned out her condo in order to sell it. Grandma really struggled with us going through her belongings. It has been an emotional journey for Grandma, but at the same time she is enjoying being around people more and brags about the great care she is receiving by my mom.
When cleaning out one of her closets, I discovered a box full of unpainted miniature reindeer. I had also found several unpainted baseball figurines along with accessories. Kianna decided we should invite Grandma GG over for a painting party, as this is one of the hobbies Grandma used to really enjoy. So we did just that! We had a great time painting with Grandma. She loved it too! She was so focused on her painting, it was sweet to watch. These are memories I will always treasure!
