Mom was finally able to meet Tekla. Greg and I surprised her the day of the funeral with Tekla's arrival. We figured it would be a great way to cheer my mom. The expression on my mom's face when I walked up to her and said "here, hold this, " and put Tekla in her arms is a look I will not soon forget.
My dad has also recently completed radiation for throat cancer which prevented him from traveling to see Tekla, he also got to meet her for the first time.
Despite it being a trip to say goodbye, the trip was filled with "hello's".

Im so sorry for your loss, but so happy she lived a full happy life and that your parents were able to meet Tekla that must have been a huge treat for your mom...
So sorry about your grandma, Phillip. :( But what a wonderful surprise for your mom and dad, what a thrill that must've been for them to finally meet their grandbaby!
Love you guys,
M
I loved being able to say "hello" to your precious little girl as I know everybody else here did, too.
She was a bright spot at an otherwise sad occasion.
