To my Mom,
Today you would have been 100 years old!! I feel my connection to your mother, Esther, who died before I was born. You were devoted to your mother, and she died too young, only in her 50s. I feel my connection to you, and I miss you more than I imagined I would. I see you in my behavior, in my values, in my good genes. I owe you so much, and wish I understood more while there was still a chance to tell you so. I see you in my two sons, and I am so glad that they could know you, and I see that your legacy carries on. My granddaughter, Rosalie, is named for you, something that brings me very much pleasure. I really love that connection to you. I imagine that it pleases you from afar.
Our sweet Rosalie owns and wears a little embroidered blouse that you bought for me when I was a little girl and we were visiting Mexico. It makes my heart feel full.
With love, your Mitzi
