Darling Pam,
I can’t resist posting this picture along with my comments. For many years Pam and Cindy have been the closest of friends, together with their husbands, we have lived a lot of life’s journeys together.
Through the good and tough times, generally holding onto the mental picture of two elderly friends. These lifetime girl friends, long passed now, were an inspiration to Pam and Cindy. Often they would liken themselves to Tillie & Lola and discuss themselves sitting together, in matching rockers when they were 100 years old.
Well, Providence does not seem to have that experience in store, so we have to settle for a similar image while in their 60’s.
I love both of you so much that taking this picture hurts, but it feels right at the same time. Today is the Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year. Even tonight, a new dawn will burst forth tomorrow. Advent is the season of hope.
Merry Christmas, lifelong memories and sweet goodbyes, my loves.
Brad
