Heaven is much better

It's hard to know what to say right now. I mean I am of course overwhelmed of this whole week, not just the day. I can't say that when I woke up this morning I planned on coming home to my grandfather being gone out of my life,not when i had just seen him 9 days earlier during Thanksgiving break.Everything leading up to this event today seems unimportant. I went to my last class and came home bam winter break begins. I really hoped all week that I would make it home to say my goodbyes to my grandpa. When I showed up to the hospital after hearing the news before I got there, I didn't even recognize the man I call grandpa. I am a cry baby,always have been,unfortunately probably always will be so of course I was crying before I even got to the hospital. I know my grandpa is in so much of a better place now that that part excites me but there is that part of me that wants to be selfish and have him back here right now with us-the grandpa we all know and love,the one who is sitting in his chair every holiday with Tim's dog,Tobi, and who got dancing animals as a present for at least a couple Christmases. There was time when we wasn't sick and things were really good. I thank God that he let me know my Grandpa for 19 years. All I can say is thank you so much friends and family for all your thoughts and prayers,we will definitely use them these next few days. Moving on will be hard but thats why God will be there to help us every step of the way.
