Early this February the world lost an extraordinary woman, my Grammy, Alice Muller. Grammy was like a second mom to me and my sister. She watched us everyday while my Mom and Dad were working and picked us up from pre-school and elementary school. We had countless sleep overs with her and never wanted to leave her house. She spoiled us and documented every moment of our lives with her camera. She was the best person to talk to about anything. Listening with love and no judgement. Even when I wasn't living close to her later in life she would brighten my day up with her loving facebook messages. She was famous among my friends for those. I can attribute my shopping addiction to her, my love for coke, and consuming an excessive amount of McDonald's chicken nuggets in my youth. I am so lucky that she got to meet her only Great Grandchild, Heidi Alice and that the days leading up to her death we got to say talk via Skype. It was her last good day and she got to sing to Heidi. It was God who was allowing us to have one last goodbye. We were so blessed to have that special moment.

Grammy was someone I strive to be and live like. She taught me to love life, my family, and most of all God. She was like a real life Angel. She could see the good in any situation and would help out anyone in need. Her legacy will live on in all the people she touched and her family. We all have a little of Grammy in us. And if she taught us anything it would be to fill the world with more love.
Today would of been her 73rd birthday. Happy Birthday, Grammy. I think I will celebrate with a trip to McDonald's, a cold coke, and to buy something pretty online.
