81. Sorry for the loss of your precious mom

Mon Nov 13, 2023, 04:26 PM

Nov 2023

Even when we know that a loved one can't live forever, and they're up in their 90's, it still can hit hard. May you embrace the happy memories, and savor her for the love and wisdom, the ways she was like, that were unique to her, that were reassuring, or memorable.

It's so amazing that she was able to go pick out pumpkins with her granddaughter, and great grandchildren, just a few weeks ago. That's so cool.

May she rest in peace, always.
