I took mom a homemade card, yes- i made it myself out of construction paper and crayons (-: It was perfect!
I also stopped by and bought her a potted plant- mini size- and a bag of York Peppermint Patties. I put it in a brown paper bag from the grocery store and wrote her name on it. I dropped the package off at the front door of the “home” and I rang the bell- to be sure they knew they had a delivery.
It is only about a 10 minute drive from my house to her home- and while i was walking up the stairs at my house -mom called me. Her voice was so happy as she thanked me for her lovely card and flower. She didn’t understand why I just didn’t come in to see her. So, we had the conversation abou thte pandemic again. I explained to her that as asoon as this was over-I’d come and get her out for the day.
She thanked me again and said good bye.
My heart is full.
Love & Light,
