love. ♥

These are my grandparents last December before Jeff and I went to India. I love this picture of them. They're so happy. Married 55 years. Does anyone stay married that long anymore?


I woke up this morning and checked my American cell phone's voicemail. Yep, I still have it if anyone ever wants to leave a message...anyway, my mom called saying my grandpa had died. When I said goodbye to him before Rwanda, I knew it would be the last and these last few weeks I knew it was coming, but it's still the worst feeling ever. It's even worse that I am here, and my family is there. What's even worse than that is I am here doing nothing, because I have a broken leg. I wish I coulda been with him these last few weeks...and he wished too. He told me to come home and we could go for walks, even though neither one of us can walk right now. That thought makes me laugh, but sad too. My grandpa was cool shit and used to love photography like me. That makes me happy.
