so so enormously busy around here lately! but, how thankful i am for that.
on monday it was my dear grandmother's 75th birthday.
on monday it was my dear grandmother's 75th birthday.
her daughters (+ littles), daughters-in-law (+littles) and 3 best friends came over for a lovely brunch in the morning light.
you must know something about my grandmother.
she is peaceful and pleasant and elegant and all that is good in the world.
she loves deeply -- just, so deeply -- which i know is why my eyes well with tears every time she hugs me tight and kisses my cheek.
she is patient (enough to raise 9 children) and encouraging and remarkably beautiful and most of all understanding.
and when something tickles her inside, she laughs with everything she is and just can't hold back (which i absolutely must have inherited directly from her).
she is just precious to me and the fullest blessing i know:
love,
L
p.s. more soon!

Have I met this grandmother? I remember meeting one of them... I hope this was her, because you just made her sound heavenly!
PS thank you for finally blogging
What a lovely sentiment, what a lovely photography, what a lovely lady!
What a great post on your grandmother and an amazing image to go along with it, I know you have given her a print of this moment.
Happy Birthday, Grandma!
She has such a beautiful external-composition. Grandmothers are the best, and they can cook better than any other on Earth.
This is quite touching...
i love this. i love grandmothers.
oh, she sounds just like my grandma only you have a gift of putting feeling into words (and of taking beautiful photos)and I'm lacking in that area. you made tears well up in my eyes. I miss my grandma.
