that was beautiful. Caught me in a reflective mood this Saturday morning too. Hope your remembrance stirs up more stories and memories. I love that your family keeps her memory alive like in Coco – no one’s really gone if you keep them in your heart! – so much that you felt her presence so vividly.

I wish I got to know my mom’s dad. I have only one memory of him from when I was 6 at the end of his life. I heard so many stories about him because everyone thought I had his personality… and eyebrows!
