Collage #64

Collage #64 is for the period of January through May 2023. It is numbered correctly but was created out of sequence. I have excuses for not creating it earlier. It was a super busy time for us, but then we keep busy all the time. It was a time of a big change for us, but then we have changes all the time. It was a time of adjustments for us, but then we always have to adjust. We moved to a new home. At the same time, our household went from three-generation to four-generation. My mother did not want to move from her home in Virginia to Texas - and if she had to move, she wanted to be with one of her sons. Time settled things down and Virginia faded in memory for my mother who is now facing another change. She has another great-granddaughter in Hawaii. She is now in Hawaii living in another four-generation arrangement. There have been and will be adjustments to be made.

A new beginning awaits us
A step from Castle Greyskull we go
We embark on a journey
Of four generations under one roof
The Hill Country welcomes Cụ 
Our beloved nonagenarian
Who comes to us from Virginia
Over thirty years she’d called it home 
We have learned to love her quirkiness
Just because we adore her so
She enjoys being showered with hugs
She laughs with us on our movie nights
On the streets she walks with us
And comes to our school to tell us stories
Our lives are dearly enriched
When friends and relatives come to visit
At Snake Mountain we gather
And celebrate our lives together
