"Now that you are a mother you will always look for ways to be remembered long after you are gone. The seeds are for Forget-Me-Nots, Mimi's favorite flower. She would go around with a packet of seeds and sprinkle them unsuspectedly as she passed (like a seed bomb). So I am giving you the seeds to remember Mimi and to make the most of those Forget-Me-Not moments. Love, Grandma Dona"
I never met Mimi, I knew of her she was a fabulous cook, a nurse, and she had a beautiful voice. This story of the seeds helped me make a connection with her, a connection I never had before. I love to think about Mimi walking (dancing) along sprinkling seeds along the way.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Mother's Day, I will hopefully get to spend time in my garden digging in the dirt, sipping Mint Juleps (it sounds so good).
