Lovely photos of your parents. Nothing is more valuable to a child than a good start with a loving mom and dad.
Thank you for sharing the love of your family. Your parents are beautiful inside and out. They absolutely glow in these photos. Keep the love alive.
Thanks for the link to retracing your roots. I wasn’t following then and have picked up on much of your story. Again, thanks for sharing.
How fun to retrace your history like that and what a cool story to say you got enagaged on the ice.
There is such love in these photos. Your mother and father were blessed in the obvious depth of that love and in how they wrapped it around and through their family.
Yet another post not requiring too many words!
Beautiful words for your beautiful parents, Esther.
Esther: Oh how life tends to show you different ways. Your mother was a lovely woman.
A beautiful pair of photos, a beautiful pair of people.
Fina, varma Bettan. Det starkaste minnet jag har efter henne är hennes skratt. Hon strålande värme och hennes skratt var så äkta, uppriktigt och smittande. Jag tänker på henne med värme!
