I've been crying off and on as I put up decorations because I find stuff with her handwriting on it, or I find a box she'd tied up with string all old-school-like and totally unnecessary.

Isn't it funny how thinking of your grandparent as a young person seems so abstract until you see photos and then you can tell, immediately, that it is so obviously, the same Gram Melva?

I wish I'd had the idea before my grandmother (the last grandparent) passed away this summer. I wish I'd known her better.
