Sweet Memories

I had a conversation with Mom today. I unpacked Christmas bins and memories came flooding back. Mom gave me these candles as a Christmas gift...some time around the turn of the century! When I chatted with her today I told her how pretty they still are, and how I wish she was here to enjoy them.  Christmas was her favorite time of the year - I inherited that from her! 


They have always been too pretty to burn!

Maybe this year I'll actually light their wicks.

Maybe not!

Love you, Mom and Dad 💕
You are here this Christmas,
...in my heart.
