It is with a heavy heart and much sadness that we said goodbye to Piper's Grandpa today. This is such a loss for the entire family and beyond, but here I wanted to take a moment to commemorate the love between granddaughter and grandfather. Bub holds a very special place in Piper's heart. He was ill during much of her early babyhood, but once he was released from the hospital and into her world he made quite an impression :) She loved to interact with him, and he sat patiently with her for hours on end playing whatever her game of the moment was. He was wonderful at being silly with her. She inherited his passion for trains, and the two shared that bond. He always called her his 'little angel'. Now he is her angel. Grandpa angels have a very busy job up in Heaven - I know he will always be looking out for her.
Piper, you are not yet old enough to understand, but someday you will be. And I want you to know that we're so happy that you had that special time getting to know Grandpa, and we're very, truly sorry for your loss.
