Yesterday we had the opportunity to attend Logan's grandma's funeral. It turned out so beautiful and was such a great experience to feel the love the Robins family has. Norma was loved by so many and loved every single person she came in contact with. She did everything you could ever imagine for her grandchildren and spent a lot of quality time with them. It was so fun to hear all the memories everyone had of her, she was an amazing woman. I am grateful to have known her for a few short years. She was incredibly welcoming to me and showed me so much love the minute she met me. I am very grateful for the family I married in to. It's been so much fun and I can see the influence of Norma on her entire family. She is missed but we know she is in a better place and having a joyous reunion with many other family members who have passed.
