I'm sure your grandmother's passing was much more peaceful knowing she had been reunited with her long lost but much loved daughter. The blanket will have been treasured not just because it was beautiful but because it was made with love by her kind and caring granddaughter.<br />Carol xxCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10811673280675153792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092841712189851602.post-58626598937283915652011-01-31T07:34:41.696+00:002011-01-31T07:34:41.696+00:00My eyes are full of tears after reading this touch...My eyes are full of tears after reading this touching story, how beautiful for you all, peace for an old lady, comfort for your mother and a new family too, amazing, you should be so proud.

I mourn for you and your mother that you didn't find her sooner and have her in your life for a longer time. My parents moved our family away from my grandparents when I was only 4 years old and I feel it was tragic that I was deprived of a relationship with both sets of my grandparents. <br /><br />Life can be so sad sometimes.
