The Story Behind Today’s Gift
She’s the best kind of grandma! She’s sweet and supportive, and always ready for fun. She loves being in the great outdoors and taking her grand-kids hiking and camping. When they can’t go roaming outside, she’ll invite the the kids over for a slumber party. She’ll bring them into the kitchen to help her bake sweets and talk about whatever’s on their minds. Other times, she’ll take them shopping for useful and frivolous things. She’s always fun and so nice to be with! If one of the grand-kids is feeling sad, she’s the rock they can lean on.
Recently her doctor told her to settle her affairs because the cancer keeps spreading. She’s feeling more tired these days and doesn’t have the same pep that she used to. She’s going to miss her family and this beautiful, complicated world. But she’s also ready to see her husband again and she trusts that he’s waiting for her on the other side.

In fact, the grandma gave her granddaughter one of her first stones. This Feel Loved Crystal is meant to help them both in the months ahead.
