Just Because

Remember I mentioned that when I moved, I found the most special and interesting things along the way, in boxes or bins or tucked away safely somewhere?  Well, I kept all my children's Baptism candles, but to my surprise, I found my Baptism candle!  My mom kept everything, and she was really good about labeling names and dates.  

My china cabinet moved with me one last time.  I found a perfect space for it in the house.

When I gave my bedroom dresser to my neighbor, she wanted to thank me somehow, and one day she brought over this.  It's nice to not have to buy any for awhile.  

While it's snowing here in the mountains, it's sunny in So Cal, and Nel and Renecke worked out in the back yard all day Saturday getting the yard in order for the kids.  They have their own personal little playground now.

When I was unpacking, I also came across these metal hearts that I gave to my Mom.  I didn't want to keep them because she was sick at the time, but I'm glad that I did.

And I found a special message from her right before Valentine's Day.  It fell out of a book when I was cleaning it.  

Nel drove up to the snow line one day before work, and Mia had a fun play day.

Jess sent me this picture of the heart tree.

Remember the swing set?

I had a Zoom meeting with the kids and it brought a big smile to this grandma's face.
