I’m trying to find an entry last year that references something in particular – a walk that the three of us took through the woods. I know it was in the fall season because I have the pictures and all the leaves are in the process of changing, so I figured I should start by looking through the October entries.

The first entry I got to was last year’s Thanksgiving recap and in it are a ton of pictures of my grandmother’s house and I started crying because I know that it’s gone now.

My mother told me that for Christmas what she would like the most is a little photo album with all the pictures that I took of the house the last time I was there. Hopefully by the time I need to print them it won’t be so hard to look at the reminders of what’s gone.
