Earth To Earth, Ashes To Ashes

Today we buried grandpa Eerikki. It was a very emotional time with lots of tears and sad faces. It was my first time being active in a funeral and Milton and Denver´s first time at a funeral. None of them understood what happened. During the funeral service Milton started to talk, whine and cry so I took him outside three times. Finally I stayed outside with him. Denver was so calm and with Mummi the whole time..

After the funeral service we had a reception for all friends and families that attended. It was all very traditional. I really like finnish funerals a lot better than swedish funerals that are a lot more casual and quick.

Again, children are so full of life and a must at funerals. They brigthens anyones day regardless of the situation.
