You gave them something to think about, memories to recall, important people to remember and lift up. You project something very special in your writings and your words touch many people. I truly believe this is God's work done through you. :-)Ancestor Collectorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03127282622653034183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29952936.post-39739637357456227492008-12-14T19:51:00.000-05:002008-12-14T19:51:00.000-05:00What a wonderful post!!!!

My Dad is in a nursing home and my mom is normally by his side every day, except for now when she is very ill and needing hospital care. But your post reminded me of recent days, when I would get them to talk about their courting days, or Daddy would say something to Momma about being so pretty Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09077658139465236292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29952936.post-39814029409578607882008-12-12T14:30:00.000-05:002008-12-12T14:30:00.000-05:00She is blessed to have you nearby!She is blessed to have you nearby!Nanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11301631192384221838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29952936.post-38928674615227853922008-12-12T13:59:00.000-05:002008-12-12T13:59:00.000-05:00This wonderful post made me wish that I was closer...This wonderful post made me wish that I was closer in distance to my Auntie.

I saw the beautiful woman turning her head away first, then I read your story and it was difficult to see the old woman with the frown, but eventually I did.
