Your normal little stories usually bring a sense of joy, since that is at the root of why you share most of them, but this one was extra special. Shoutout to E for being the source of such a feelgood gesture!

Well done Paul, and E. Blessings to your Mom. And this reminds me that a trip to my parents plot is overdue

I loved reading this and loved seeing a picture of your beautiful jeans-wearing mother. If I live to be 100 I hope I look like her. Zei gezunt.

So good, Paul and E. I love a good trip to the cemetery, and the sentiment of the ivy? Mwah!
