Nodding off in your chair with a sleeping cat on your lap
Only waking when a visitor arrived at your door
Very special memories of the delicious holiday foods you’d cook
Each fall you would request the exact foot sizes of grandkids and great grandkids
Making slipper socks for Hanukkah was your love language
Being alone never really suited you
Each time we’d bring my grandkids I knew it would
Replenish your vessel of love
