My Mom passed away on Mother’s Day, as I held her hand, talking to her, and stroking her forehead. As an only child whose Father passed in 2016, this has been an incredibly difficult time. I’ve been cleaning out her house and collected a big pile of items to donate to a Rummage Sale for the rescue from which she had adopted her beloved companion cat, Munchkin. When I went to drop off those donations, I found a quilted heart outside the location. I’ve never heard of this project! But it was like a warm hug to remind me that I’m loved during this difficult time, and brought a smile to my face. The heart now has a home with me, and will go on my Christmas tree every year as a reminder of the kindness of strangers. ❤️
