Oh yes, I have so many things that remind me of my children and grandchildren...a little soapdish that my daughter gave me during our 'rocky' years...but I treasure it because she said 'love'. The scarf I wore the day her daughter, my first grandchild was born, almost 14 years ago...greeting cards from my sons, old photographs...I am a sentimental fool...Deborahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002468510668438210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4145825647751945760.post-41065388065469898152012-02-17T15:04:01.022-06:002012-02-17T15:04:01.022-06:00What a sweet story!

When I am missing them I go in and gaze at them. One of my favorites is my 5 year old grandson holding his new baby sister with such a look of wonder and love on his face. I can recall the walk into the hospital with his hand in mine. I said, "You are my heart, can your new baby sister be my soul?" He stopped and looked up at me with big blue eyes and said, "No, Gramma, I am all of that to you!" He is almost 17 now.Kathy's Klotheslinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17881966393157941515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4145825647751945760.post-19674658589562817912012-02-17T07:19:33.842-06:002012-02-17T07:19:33.842-06:00Wonderful post.

That said, of course, I have filled my home with things that emit a certain kind of light. Hmmm. So I guess I do. :-) There is a certain light that I believe was around any time I was with my grandma, and I think I try to recreate that...<br /><br />Thought provoking!<br /><br />PearlPearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05261369905176088917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4145825647751945760.post-68926963720891024112012-02-16T05:13:20.480-06:002012-02-16T05:13:20.480-06:00I so loved this post, and yes I do, I also have a ...I so loved this post, and yes I do, I also have a mug from Praga, where I went for my first holiday as a married woman.
