Lil, Your post about buying cards in honor/memory reminds me of something I did recently. [Wink]

I had lunch with my mom at the cemetery.

I had planned to sit right there with her, but the weather didn't cooperate, so I sat in the car with my salad, diet soda, and bread, right near her grave stone. I talked to her as though she was in the seat right next to me and it was so therapeutic. Can't wait to do it again.

Mourning takes on many forms! [Wink]

I know that I feel closets to my one grandma when I am in my garden. SHe loved to garden and was out there every day doing her thing. It will be a year since she died in about a week and I can't wait to take her some tomatoes, green peppers, herbs, and flowers from my garden.

Candice, what a blessing to be able to pick up with her gardening hobby (a perfect place to think about your grandma) ....and on and on it shall go! Maybe one day your grandchildren will think of you in the garden. That's how it all carries on. I love it! [Big Grin]
