We finally got the headstone for mom's grave. It is beautiful and everything, but seeing it really hit me hard. I'm not sure how to explain it, I mean I know she has been dead several months now. But a gravestone with her name on it sort of stunned me... why?
I think it just makes it all so permanent. On the same note, I've never been able to understand how people buy those duplicate headstones for like wife & husband and then one of them dies, and the other sits there and sees their own name and birthdate already etched in stone for years, just waiting for their death date to come. I think that would bug me if I had one.
