Homage to Grandparents

Jimmy Carter proclaimed National Grandparents Day in 1978 although it was 1970 Marian McQuade who began a campaign to establish a special day of recognition for grandparents. I remember sending my Nan a greeting card to share with her how important she was to me on Grandparents Day. I think of her often and especially when gardening because I use her hand trowel that’s included in this photo. I thought it apropos to include also some faded flowers because our memories may fade over time but our love stays fresh when we think about the times we spent with those that we love.
