After my husband and I survived the chaos and craziness of the kid birthday party at Chuck E Cheese...we headed home to unpack the car and prepare for the family cookout. All was ready and prepared and we were set to go, then my mother got the call that her mother was being transported back tot he hospital again.
The party went on... then later I made my way to the hospital for the upteenth time in three weeks (we have all lost count).
As I blog my mother and aunt are making decisions about the upcoming hospice care my grandmother will receive. We want her to be comfortable and with folks who will care for her best. All of us in our different ways and means are saying and preparing ourselves for the 'goodbye' that is coming soon.
Last week I sang to a lovely lady in our congregation the song, "Soon and Very Soon." I find myself humming that again as thankful tears fall down my cheeks for my grandmother's well lived life. She has been a tremendous positive influence on my and many others. And I know she will see the King, my grandfather, my cousin and her sister all very, very soon.
Soon and very soon we are going to see the King, hallelujah!
Soon and very soon we are going to see the King; hallelujah!
Soon and very soon, we are going to see the King.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! We're going to see the King.
No more dying there...
No more crying there, we are going to see the King.
