Grandma Emma...

Everyday Grandma Emma would start the day with two cups of coffee with milk. A slice of toast with butter and jelly and one small cookie. Day after day, the same breakfast. She really enjoyed that morning breakfast and routine. She said the coffee got her moving as she got older. Looks like she was right on with that information. Now our medical society tells us that coffee in moderation is good for us. She had that inner sense and was able to understand how life worked together. She so enjoyed her coffee... just as many others in the family do also.

Grandma Emma and Summer days...

Grandma Emma always loved to be out in the yard walking in the soft wind, blue skies and warm sunny days of mid summer. One of her favorite sayings:  The more you walk, the better you walk and the better you walk, the more you walk. She believed this and practiced her walking each and everyday. Walking kept her in good shape! and most importantly her spirit. She always felt a burst of energy after her daily walk in the yard. Something I try to do everyday. Makes good sense. She was a wise woman woman of the world.

Our angel, Grandma Emma...

In times of desperation I always asked Grandma Emma what she would do in a specific situation. She would listen carefully and then offer advice. It was always correct. She was a wise and thinking person, taught from a young age to make the best of any situation she was dealt. All of her young years she kept learning those important life lessons that carried her through her life. Wisdom and knowledge still exist and did then also. The women today should have those life lessons as they are still so very valuable. Life is precious and giving. We all need to practice situational awareness.  Ideas change everyday, but the basics of life still exist, a home, food, medicine, clean air, good water. But most important...Love, kindness and decency in a society. Thank you Grandma for your words of wisdom.

Spring...
