Hi all,

It was 2 yrs. ago tonight that my sweet Mama passed to another place.  She has been on my mind a lot today.  
Just had to share this little story with you.  I took a walk after supper, and as I came back to the house I walked
out back to look at our hawthorne tree which is in bloom.  When I started back to the garage I looked down and
saw all the clover there.  Remembering how Daddy, Mama and I were always looking for 4-leaf clovers, I said,
"Mama, help me find a 4-leaf clover".  I looked right down at my shoe, and there was a big pretty 4-leaf clover!  I
picked it, and cried.  Came in the house, and told David what had happened.  I just KNOW Mama heard me, and
was nearby.  I do miss that sweet face.  Hope all of you are well, and enjoying spring.

Love,

Gretchen
