Goodbye, Grandma...I'll Miss You!

So, our Grandmother's visit came to an end last night (early this morning). We drove her to LAX around 9:30pm for her 1:05am flight back to El Salvador. We were fearing a very complicated and hectic check-in process at the Airport, but, to our surprise, that was not the case. The people at the Taca Airlines counter were both kind and courteous, and they were very attentive to my Grandmother's needs. It was a very welcome relief to know that she would be very well taken care of, seeing how she was flying alone. There were tears, and there was some heartache, but in the end we were truly thankful for having at least met her this once. (And hopefully not the last) She called early this morning to let us know that she arrived safe and sound. She left us with memories and plenty of love. Despite never having met, we got along like we were lifelong friends. I miss her already...I hope she knows that.
