very grateful for

God’s cushions

courage

limited ice damage from the storm

insulation

the sacrifice of the men and women at Pearl Harbor

the conviction of my dad to join the Navy after learning of the attack

he had not done this he would not have been stationed in San Diego and met my mom

a beautiful written eulogy for Ruth and Crystal and Carol’s kind remarks

images of dancing

you must find your own quiet center of life ~writer Sarah Orne Jewett
