It was a long and rough weekend for the Miller Family. We went into Wheeling on Saturday afternoon and went to church with Pappy. Corinne is really into echos right now so she was yelling in the very big and open church that Jeremy's parents go to. After church we just tried to help Pappy feel better about his dad by telling stories about all the good times that they had. Sunday were the calling hours for Jeremy's Grandpap and they lasted from 12-8 so it was a very long and sad day. Corinne was a trooper and we stayed for all but about 2 hours of the day. She got to meet a lot of family that she had never met before and everyone just keep saying how beautiful she is. I really realized how much she looks like a Miller on Sunday when she was around all of Jeremy's family. Jeremy's Grandmother got to come to the funeral home for a little bit and it was just so sad. Monday was the funeral for Jeremy's Grandpap, John Augustus Miller Jr. was laid to rest and it was very hard even though as Jeremy says I never really got to meet his Grandpap. His Grandpap had been suffering the effects of Alzheimer's for about ten years now. On a happier note Corinne is doing patty cake now complete with clapping and her attempt to "roll it". It is amazing how fast she is growing. She is also wanting to "walk" all the time so I don't think it will be long. Corinne also had some potatoes off Mommy's plate and the luncheon after the funeral. She got some time to play with her cousin's Madison, Kolby and Austin which she just loves!
