Visiting hours in heaven!

I saw this photo quote on a friend's post the other day. What a beautiful thought.
I sometimes wish that were true too, then it wouldn't seem so hard to wait and see
our loved ones in the next life. Just think about if we could have visiting hours!
I would visit my Grandma Johnny and tell her about how my life turned out. I would
tell her about her Great Grandchildren and how fun and sweet they are. I would thank her
for teaching me to sew and tell her that I know work and teach in a Quilt Shop.
I would stop by and see my Aunt Ina and thank her for the incredible influence of LOVE and
Acceptance she was in my life. I knew she loved me and that no matter what she would always
protect me. We were together the first 9 years of my life. I think of the special relationship I have with Angie at the age 8, and so I could only imagine how much closer she and I were, because we lived in the same
home.
I would stop and see my Mom and tell her about all that is going on in my life. I would tell her that Lauren is getting ready to get married soon. I would tell her how well Lee is doing in college. I would tell her about her great grandchildren too. I would check on her and let her know how much I miss her.
There are a ton of other people I would visit. I am just grateful that I know that this life isn't the end. That we can go on through the eternities with our loved ones, if we live worthy to do so.
Knowing that there is life after death;  that are loved ones are ok, and that we will be able to see each other some day, is a knowledge that brings me great peace and joy.
Good night dear friends!

Gone, but never forgotten
