Those of you who are following my blog, may have read that my “Mother-in love” has recently gone home to be with the Lord.
One lasting memory that we all share, is her love for music. What a joy to watch her sit and play the piano…it never mattered that the songs were always the same, that she missed a few keys & added some extra… or that eventually (due to her arthritis) she no longer could play…She simply installed a player piano…& her songs played on…in everyone’s hearts.
When the grandkids were little, she would sit them on her lap, and teach them songs like “I can wash the dishes, I can sweep the floor, I can kiss the pretty girls behind the kitchen door.”
Later, she would thrill and grin from ear to ear just to hear them play or sing a song.
She always had a smile on her face, and a song in her heart.
I love you Mom.
What a sweet memory to treasure. You have been blessed indeed with a mother “in love.” May God send you His peace and comfort as you ponder her impact on your lives.
Thank you so much Donna…such sweet comforting words:) xo
Makes me think of my precious grandmother who always sang to us, her grandchildren. I her last days on earth where she was not quite herself, I would sing those songs to her and she would just light up. I miss her so, especially here at Christmas. Thanks so much for sharing.
Lara, Thank you so very much for sharing your heart and the memories of your Grandmother. What a blessing SHE had in you:) We are so privileged to experience such love. xo
God’s grace and peace to you and your family.
Thanks so much Pamm:) God bless you!
