Last spring when my Granny died, a family friend sent the kids the sweetest note with money for them to use to honor Granny in some way. Georgia Anne had a great idea to use the money to purchase a tree and plant it in memory of Granny. I thought it was a wonderful idea. We took them to the garden center and let them choose the tree they wanted. They selected a peach tree and let them decide where to plant it.
I miss Granny so much. She loved flowers and gardening and it makes me smile when I see the tree and think of her.

| The first blooms this spring came on the year anniversary of her death. I was sad that entire day. Towards the end of the day I was in the kitchen at the sink when I looked out the window and noticed the little tree the kids had selected and planted had a few pretty pink blooms. Pink was her favorite color. It was almost as if Granny was showing me it was alright. |

| Soon the tree was covered with little green peaches. |

| And now full of fuzzy ripe peaches that just make he happy. |
