It's almost Proustian how certain memories transport us back in time, the scent of certain flowers, musty basements. I really enjoyed reading about your memories with your grandma, thanks for sharing! After reading about you and your mom on Fran’s blog, I had to come over and read this tribute to your grandmother.

I wish I would have known her, but it sounds like you have carried on her traditions. You both were lucky to have each other. What a beautiful tribute to your Grandma.

I'm sure it filled her heart to no end to have you in her life and to share her garden with you. My Grandma didn't garden but she made Matzoh Ball Soup...a tradition that I now pass on to my loved ones. Lisa Hi Rebecca,

It is lovely that you were so close to her. My grandmother always used to tie the first peony to flower on my birthday present. Now, when I think of her, I think of that flower.
