It seems like I haven't been on here forever. The girls were sick and then on Tuesday of last week we got news that my great grandmother, Grandma Redfield passed away. So we went to her visitation and funeral on Thursday and Friday. It is a very long drive up there and back. Tay only made it to school on Wednesday last week... we made her go so she could get all her homework done before we left. She wasn't one hundred percent but we didn't know what else to do. Tierney didn't make it at all last week. Tierney didn't feel good still on Thursday and was pretty rotten in the car and at the visitation. When we went out to eat afterwards she was asking to go back to the hotel for some quiet. I figured she must not feel well because she does not usually recognize when she needs quiet time. Tay had a rough time on Friday night. She is really sad about grandma and not understanding why she had to die. Tierney doesn't quite get it and thought grandma would be at the hotel we were at. Even last night she was talking about where grandma is. It is hard to explain it for her to understand.
