Messages to Heaven

Chris's Grandma Foster passed away yesterday. She got pretty sick back in October, so we knew that her time on earth was short. Our kids had a hard time understanding and processing the idea that she passed away. She didn't want a funeral, but we wanted to help our kids remember her in a positive way. This afternoon we got some balloons and sent her messages letting her know she was loved.





Benson was hysterical with the balloon. He kept trying to chase it like a cat chasing yarn!

And they are off! It was such a good way to help our kids say goodbye! We will never drive by Coco's without thinking of Grandma!
*funny sidenote: Addie's balloon popped in the trees. We told her it would still make it to heaven, and she was so excited about it, that she insisted on calling Grandma and Grandpa Foster to let them know it would still make it!
