She rocked him and sang to him as he fell asleep.
I didn't think she would ever get to rock my babies. She was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago, i was heartbroken, thinking of her never meeting my future kids.
Yesterday my grandma met Liam. She loved him up and sang him old nursery tunes.
I'm so grateful for this life and that her cancer has been on the back burner for a few months.
She seems strong and healthy right now.
She seemed like my old grandma, the one that didn't have cancer defining her, rather, the grandma that has beautifully worn fingers from knitting, perfectly combed hair and makeup. The grandma that is grateful for blue skies and good books. A grandma giddy to love up on my brand new baby, her great-grandchild.
I'm so thankful for yesterday and all the tomorrow's from here.
