I know how you feel, Stephanie, regarding leaving a loved one behind. I had an elderly friend in England (I live in Southern Ontario, Canada) who I only saw now and again. I hated leaving him because one never knows if this might just be the last time. On the other hand, at the other end of the spectrum, Lancelot’s unbridled joy at seeing you THROUGH THE WINDOW and then seeing him so excited he kept running back and forth between the two of you brought a wee tear to my eye. Bless!

Mine are in their 70s. I see them every week. But we have all three of us suddenly become very frail. I cry every time I am on my way to see them and cry every time I leave.

If they were in another country I’d go mad.

The beautiful flowering shrub at La Lande is likely a Pink Dawn Viburnum- one of the best scented early bloomers in my TN garden, too. Bring cut blooms indoors and they will perfume an entire room.

But I feel so blessed to have had her in my life. May you enjoy many many many years with your mom. And beautiful photography this video. I didn't realize it was such a long journey from France to South Africa. Even though it's cold in France, spring can't come soon enough. I look forward to seeing the Chateau come alive with the grounds outside.
