Today would have been my Nana's 101st birthday.

I remember her 100th birthday party and it doesn't seem like it was a whole year ago. That was the last time I was able to talk to her with her knowing I was there.

The next time I saw her was a few days later, the day she passed away.

I know she had more time on this earth than most people get. I know she had more people who loved her than most people have. I know she had a better life than most people. I know she was able to stay pure and good through the trials we all face. But that doesn't mean I don't wish she was still here.

I miss her with all my heart, but I know she's still around somewhere. She promised she would let me know, and she did - twice. I just wish I could see her again.

If you have any living grandparents, cherish them, talk to them, visit them, because you never know when they will slip away.
