Purple Day

Sam and I, along with others at school, wore purple today to raise money to fight Alzheimer's. We brought pictures of Grandmother Hayden to share, and I proudly wore her "A" necklace today. It's hard to believe she left us to live in Heaven nine years ago. When she died, it made me sad that my children would never know her. I was wrong...her spirit is alive in my mom and her siblings. She's alive in the stories and pictures we share with Sam and will soon share with Drew. Rest in peace Mary Aunita Hayden. We miss you.
