This afternoon we scattered Grandma's ashes. The sun came out and I knew she did that for us. She didn't like the rain. There were me, my Mum, my Dad, my Aunt, Grandma's two sisters Gaynor and Joan and Gaynor's husband. My cousin Hannah also came. Seeing her urn was a shock, it was huge. We were taken to the spot where my Bampy (her husband) was scattered in 1991. We took turns in scattering her ashes. Once it was over, we all released balloons. It was sad but happy. I think if we remember she's in a happy place now and is out of pain, we can over it this and look back with smiles.
