On the 9th Day of Christmas: Grandma Rose

I'm pushing pause on the 12 Days of Christmas because my last living grandparent, Grandma Rose, seems to be in her final days. I'm off to go and visit this lovely woman, hoping to spend some precious time at her bedside. This video is of the last time I was with Grandma, driving home from Southern California in November. I really can't imagine a world without her energy and sass. At every family reunion, we've always worn cheesy t-shirts that say "I belong to Rose." What I wouldn't give to have one of those in my possession! I'm so blessed to belong to this woman.
