A Fast Five Years

Five years ago, my grandmother(aka Nonnie), passed away. She was my last hope that my children would be able to know one of their great grandparents. Unfortunately she didn't even get to see me get married let alone give birth to three wonderful children. She did however meet my fabulous husband. Nonnie definitely approved of him and would have been happy to see us married. I have been thinking about her a lot lately since Jimmy decided to start a garden. Some of my favorite childhood memories took place in Nonnie's garden. There are so many but two that stick out are picking the makings for a salad fresh from her garden and then getting to eat it at dinner that night, and the other is a tent made from bed sheets and her picnic table and benches.

Nonnie would be so proud of you and your family.
