Still Sitting Out

It’s been over two months since Christmas, but this musical snow globe sits on a table and was a gift from us to my mother in 2000. When she died in 2003, we brought it to our house. My sister and I told all our children they could take back any gift to her they wanted. Just as she did on this snow globe, our mother wrote the date and name of the giver on the bottom of the gift. I don’t have to wind up the music or shake to bring snow as I did tonight to miss her.
