Lydia,

Your image and beautifully honest and poignant story really touch me. She reminds me of my mom before she left us.....totally her. The wine, dogs, listening intently to her grandkids and very present. I also feel sadness for many of the elderly that have been left behind and are considered "insignificant". I think of them as being put out to pasture :(.

Thank for this wonderful memory!

Gorgeous. I need to know how you pp'd this, Lydia. It's magnificent, and perfect for this image. Congrats on the HM. Yes, I know what you mean. I don't get to see my mom but maybe once a year.
