I Believe in Grandmothers.

About five years ago I picked up these two frames and put my grandmother's photos in them for our Christmas tree. It was a small but a very meaningful tribute for me to do it. This year I could not find Granny's [Eva] frame.

I stayed up to finish a few things last night after everyone had gone to bed and I was thinking about Granny and it being her birthday today. I had already checked it a few times but late last night it occurred to me that I needed to look in our now empty ornament box one last time. I said to myself, "Granny please tell me where you are."

And there it was, at the bottom of that lonely box wrapped tightly in tissue. I was so relieved to find it! It felt as if she was with me at that moment and that I was meant to put her up there beside Meme [Theresa] on the eve of her 89th birthday.

I loved those beautiful ladies both, so much.

Small miracles.

I believe.
