If you can't laugh about the struggles in life what can you laugh about right so I am dedicating this blog to all those special people in my life who have spent some time in a nursing home. My great grandma who lived to be 101 lived in a nursing home for 10 years, my other great grandma who lived in a nursing home for a short time before she died, my dad who has now, at age 60, permanently been placed in a nursing home, and my grandma who is age 87 and now in a nursing home.......that's a heck of a lot of denture cream, surgical socks, and depends.
This was our trip to Sterling, over spring break, to visit my grandma in the nursing home. The kids were really good....to amuse themselves they paced the halls and pretended to be asleep on the extra bed in her room.
It is sad to see people not be able to take care of themselves anymore but I am very glad that we have places where good, professional, and caring people can help.....so thank you to anyone who has ever worked at a nursing home....we truly appreciate everything you do....and I mean everything!

Kim, this might have been your funniest blog. Mike can hear me laughing from down in the basement! This made my day. I love the picture of Jay and Lauren pretending to sleep. I hadn't seen that yet. Too funny. Thanks again for the good laugh.
