You may recall that the public library in our town
planted a tree in honor and memory of my Mom. There also was one planted in a nearby County park by the county, and there's one that was given to us by friends that we planted in our back yard. (My Mom touched a lot of lives and many people wanted to honor her memory.)
Yesterday, on my way home, I drove past the library and saw Mom's tree. I wish I had gone past a few days earlier, since the cherry trees are a little past their peak in this area. Even so, it looked beautiful... fittingly. (Sorry, I had to stop and dab a tear. There aren't a lot of things that get me that way, but I really miss Mom and Dad.)
So I went back there today with the camera and took a picture. Mom's tree is doing nicely...
