Farmor

We celebrated Christmas with our Grandma who is visiting from Saskatchewan. Her eyesight is failing so while she can still see she made quilts for the future children of all her grandkids. She made one for my kid and one for Trent's kid. She included cards from her for the kids with a sweet note and a picture of her. It was really sweet and sentimental, but also really sad. It's becoming more and more apparent that she's not going to be around for that much longer. I can't imagine what it would be like to go blind. My grandparents often say "Getting old isn't for sissies". I think they are right.

Farmor means grandma (on your father's side) in swedish.
