My Great-Grandmother at 121 Years

121 Years Ago......
I never knew what your voice sounded like but I'm sure it was just as sweet as your precious smile I'd find looking back at me from a vintage photo. I have often wondered about you…your life…your love for Bert, your children, your animals.

I know when I'm outside admiring the sun's playful dance with tree leaves or the iridescent sheen of a hummingbird's exquisite flight or during my feeding sessions with my feathered friend, Birdie Birdie, while I have m...y morning coffee, I smile knowingly.
I have that same adoration in me for nature's creatures and appreciation for my surrounding's the globe has created. And this endearment comes from you, Edith. You named your pet "turks" and chickens and enjoyed your horses and time outside, in the Grand Canyon. You were in your own utopia, your little slice of pure heaven. Your life and loves brought you so much joy.
I will always remember you and I am so happy my heart sees the beauty of my life around me the way yours saw your own.
With love.....happy birthday, my great-grandmother.
-Meagan
