What a cool idea….going back over the years on Facebook and seeing what happened on a particular day. I love it…and I love seeing where you have been over the past years on this day. Pretty amazing!! I love the photo of your Grandma’s house.
April, what a fun way of remembering key moments in your life! What a thoughtful exercise of reflection and appreciation! Thank you for sharing these lovely memories. <3
