(September 13, 2023) — Google sent an alert that my storage on their services was filling up. One of the options was to review large email attachments and these photos above from Christmas Day in 2017 emerged.
This would be the last Christmas with mom. That lumberjack holding that blanket? One of the last gifts she’d give me. (There were a pile!)
I love her expression as she looks to me unwrapping (why am I facing away? I have no idea!).
Filing these images back in their place in time in this virtual photo album and thinking of her, missing her, and so grateful for every moment.
A few more photos from the day that were buried in archives:
