It was a year ago today (exactly one month shy of his 61st birthday) that we lost our granpa (as he spelled it) to a quick battle with the ugly disease cancer.
It saddens us that Cohen will never get to hit him on the head with a pillow - even more fun when performed on the top bunk of a bunk bed!
And he won't get to kick Granpa in the booty while he's being pushed on the swing...
But we are SO thankful for the times we did have ... Such as ...
Walks in the garden ... talks about ants ... and hiding under trees ...
Playing with Mimi's doll house ...
Or playing any number of random games with our Granpa ...
One of the things I'll personally miss the most is the "cackle laugh". Austin and his dad had the same sense of humor. Something (most likely ridiculous) would make them both laugh...they had the same laugh and would start to "cackle". Then they would be laughing so hard at one another cackling and they'd both end up in tears. At the time, we'd all look at them like they were crazy and laugh at them. Now, it's one of the sounds I miss the most!
