Sometimes I would like to ask God why He allows poverty, famine and injustice in the world when He could do something about it...but I'm afraid He might ask me the same question. Anonymous

Little Fat Birds
(NaNa's favorite "little fat birds" with a picture of her as a child.)
My NaNa passed away one year ago today. I can still hardly believe that she's gone. Though, over time, mourning is replaced with memories and tears are replaced with loving thoughts, life is never the same. I have missed her so this past year.
She had a love for "little fat birds" (what she always referred to them as) and, because of her, they have become precious to me as well. I can never look at a pair of little fat birds without thinking of her.
Of all of her belongings, the thing that I wanted most was this pair of little fat birds (above)....a pair that I recall has been around for as long as I remember.
I've added a few others here and there as well (and will continue to do so) because they bring such sweet memories of her to the surface.

I think I have seen this picture at your house. Did not know that it was your Nana. I love the birds and how you have added to the pair. These birds will always bring you back to wonderful memories of your Nana. I also love the fact that sometimes the smallest things bring back the fondest memories.
