Remembering


365 days. 12 months. 1 year. Today, one year ago, Glenn's mom died. It went so fast and yet it seems like a lifetime ago. She loved birds and flowers. She walked with a hitch, better after she had her hip replaced. She smiled and laughed, and when she laughed really hard tears came out of her eyes (Glenn does that too). She was soft spoken and had a tender heart. She loved gardening and at one time had 3 gardens! She always sent you home with some tomatoes, or cucumbers from her garden or corn if the time was right. She grew watermelon and cantaloupe. She liked to sew but never found time for it. I can't believe it's been a year. Glenn's dad is doing better than I could have ever imagined. He is getting out which I thought would not happen. But he says the house is too quiet and he does not like to stay there. We miss you mom!

Heard the song "Finally Home" by Mercy Me? It's on their latest album...it speaks to the hope of being reunited in Heaven with our loved ones, and it is precious to me on many levels.
Cherishing memories of my own loved ones alongside you...
