Today I want to pay tribute to two women. One is my beloved Aunt Joyce. She recently left us to join her beloved husband (my uncle) in heaven. I miss her very much. She was a beautiful woman, inside and out. She taught me some valuable lessons in my teens. When I was grumbling about my dear mother as teens will do, rather than agree or disagree she pointed out that what I focus on is what I become. Whoa!
My mother has tremendous qualities, she is smart, funny and loyal to a fault. I have my aunt to thank for helping recognize that early on.
I love you Joyce, you will always remain SO Joyce in my heart!
Next, my friend of many, many years lost her mother last week. I cannot imagine, I don’t want to imagine the pain my friend is experiencing. I have tried to be there for her, but I am not her mother. This video is one my friend made of her mother on her last birthday. It is so cute, I wanted to share it. Lorraine, Grammy Yum Yum, I know you are keeping everyone laughing in heaven!
