Nanny and the past year.

It is hard to believe that it has been one year since Nanny passed away and to think of all that has transpired in the last 12 months where she wasn't physically here with us have been quite emotional but I can always feel that she is watching over us. In this past year we have all had our moments of happiness, sadness and reflection and all of our families have gone through a lot of changes and have had many events take place. For Scott and I our biggest has been getting pregnant and I have to say that I have missed her so very much through this whole experience. Scott and I got into a conversation about Nanny last night because I have had some moments here in the last couple of weeks where I have been a little emotional about things and I was telling him that it doesn't seem like it was a year ago that we lost her and that I was missing her a lot here lately. He then told me again about the story of where just a few weeks after she passed away how he felt as though someone was helping guide him through his decision of us trying to have a baby again and he knows it was Nanny and how he knows she has been with us through each and every step of this process. I can't wait until Jayci is old enough for me to tell her stories about her great-grandmother and how she got her name. Our family is so fortunate to have the foundation that Nanny, grand-dad, Mamma Sewell, Daddy Sewell and all others before us have helped build and I know that will continue with all of the other generations in the family.

Nanny will be forever in our hearts and I know that one day we will see her again but until then I take tremendous comfort in knowing that she is watching out for all of us.
