Thank goodness for little girls!!
Earlier this week, my grandfather died. While it was expected and we were all prepared, and knew he was going to a happier place....it was still heart-wrenchingly sad.
Thank goodness I had Lily to bring to the wake and funeral with me. She is such a happy little thing - and she was SO good for everything. She smiled non-stop and made it near impossible for anyone to be sad.
I don't know what I would have done without her. She's seriously an angel! I am so so so lucky!!

My grandmother died in August, and I felt the same way about having my son there.

Re: Thank goodness for little girls!!
awww, sorry for your loss
We lost my grandfather a couple weeks ago as well, and Gianna was the shining light that cheered everyone up. Everyone was hugging her and thanking me for bringing her to the wake and funeral, especially my grandmother.

Re: Thank goodness for little girls!!
I am so sorry about your grandfather.
My grandmother passed this past Saturday and it was the same thing. Although it was expected, its still so heartbreaking.
Megan was SO GOOD through it all and made people smile.
My friend told me (spanish descent) that in her family they believe that if a baby is in good spirits throughout a wake and funeral, it means the persons spirit is at rest in heaven. It made me feel so good since Megan was wonderful. Hopefully it can make you feel a little better too.
My prayers are with you and your family and thank goodness for Lily for being the angel she is.

Thank you for that....it really does help. Lily is usually a great baby...but she was better than ever at the wake....so I hope your friend is correct!

Re: Thank goodness for little girls!!
I am sorry about your grandpa...and I agree. Bella came to the lunch after the cemetery when my cousin passed away...people really gravitated to her innocence and laughter...
It is bittersweet.

Re: Thank goodness for little girls!!
Agree my neice was one when my mom passed away, and she made the entire experience more bearable...
When we went to order the flowers, she says "oh cr@p"...  (yeah oops bad word but defiantly lightened the mood)
