It has been a hard week here in the Robins' household. Last week Mike's grandfather (Poppy) went into the hospital and was not doing very well. Mike took the much needed trip up to Lewiston to see his grandfather. Poppy was not very responsive and the hospital decided not to move him to a nursing home as was originally planned. Wednesday morning, Poppy peacefully went to join Mike's aunt and his (Poppy's) siblings that have already returned home. Poppy (and Grandma) raised Mike when he was growing up.
We have been blessed that financially we have the money for Mike to make the trip last weekend and again this coming week to attend the funeral. We love and miss you Poppy and can not wait until we see you again.
It is times like these that I realize how grateful I am for my knowledge of our Heavenly Father's plan for us. I am grateful to know that this is not the end and that we will be able to see Poppy again and that because of the Gospel and the Sealing Power here on this earth I know that families can be together forever.
