    I see my mom in Aunt Veda…

    And the pain of loosing…is not only gut wrenching, heart breaking, but it not right…

    And to see you sisters bond together during this life-changing point in your life … just amazing.

    I love, love, love the Love gang. My favorite memory will always be mudding
    in the rain… down your hill…till someone got cut…and started bleeding…and had to go tell the parents…they were not happy…but we were…

    Who knew mud could be so much fun…

    (((hugs)))
