My grandmother did not live to see any of her great-grandchildren. <br /><br />I realize this is but a crushed leaf--but wished to mark the moment. <br /><br />Yesterday, I was in the midst of several dancing circles, and I thought--how much my grandmother would have enjoyed it--<br /><br />Gratitude to you, as well.Iulia Flamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06962212081437398247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36102455.post-5159670301205734732014-04-21T18:37:41.966-08:002014-04-21T18:37:41.966-08:00May I join the circle, step into the rhythm?
