It's Not Just Groundhog's Day

2/2/14
As most of you know, Feburary 2nd is Groundhog's Day.  The day where our fate of winter or spring is decided by a underground rodent seeing his special little shadow or not.
But to my family it is more than that. Today is my Grandpa Elman's and Grammie Bertie's wedding anniversary. (Don't ask me why they got married on groundhogs day, I don't know.) And for the first time in 15 years, they are spending today together.
They got married in 1944.

They had five wonderful chidren together (the youngest having the bestest youngest daughter ever ;)) and had two children waiting for them in Heaven due to miscarriages.
My grandpa passed in 1998, I was four years old so I don't remember him much. But I do remember what his loss did to my sweet grandma.  She loved him so much that she was never the same again after. She had an accident and some of her memory was off, but no matter what, she could tell you anything you wanted to know about Elman.
Grammie passed away last April, she rejoined the love of her life and whatever children that were waiting for her there two weeks before my finals.  She probably also met some of her grandchildren that had yet to be born. I believe this because my nephew was born after her passing, and my sister often feels the prescence of our Grammie. I'm also pretty sure she told Drewbles to be nice to me because he is the only baby that has ever liked me for more than two seconds.
Now, for the first time in 15 years, my grandparents can spend their wedding anniverary together. I'm positive that they are happy.  I am also positive that they love their family, and watch over all of us.
I miss my Grammie. So much that it hurts. But I am so happy that she is with my grandpa.  He may not have been the greatest man, but he was her love. I saw how much she missed him, and now she can be happy. That is the greatest thing of all.

I'm sure they are serving in Heaven together today. They probably have also visited their progenity. I know they are happy.
Happy 69th Wedding Anniversary Grandpa Elman and Grammie Bertie. I miss you. Thanks for the chair that I am now sitting in.

Also, simulataneously, while that is happening, Kylie and I will be robbing the Second National Bank of all its two dollar bills.
