What a lovely day...

Today we held the memorial service for my Mom...It was simply beautiful!  The weather was perfect, the perfect amount of people showed up, the food was great, the stories and laughs and tears were all perfect...Dorothy would have been pleased.:)

I miss Mom, but know that she is in a better place, and she is with some pretty amazing people...My Dad, her parents who both died before she turned 25, her brothers, just to name a few.

Her service was themed in yellow, one of her favorite colors.  Lots of pictures from her whole life...She modeled a bit when she was young, so, there was a lot to choose from.  One of my favorites is her in a slinky (for the time) black bathing suit, standing next to...a...(wait for it)...burro, or donkey of some sort...

I am so full of joy, and sorrow, and humility and pride...I just know that despite all that there is left to do, things are as they should be.

Much love.
