What is Christmas?
It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present,
hope for the future. It is a fervent wish that every cup may overflow
with blessings rich and eternal, and that every path
may lead to peace.
~ Agnes M. Pahro

(The majolica platter and plates belonged to my late mother-in- law, and the framed photo shows
my late father-in- law at age 3. The little shoes were his too.)
It was out of tenderness for the past that I was inspired to capture these images,
and remember
Grandparents and parents who have passed on.
I'm reminded of them of when I hear certain songs, read a handwritten recipe or look at
ornaments they owned that are now ours.
It is said that all hearts come home at Christmas.
