My Niece


This picture reminds me of my niece Endora. We were the bestest of friends. She was only 5 years younger than me. She was so bubbly, so funny, so compassionate, so caring, and so full of life. She was more than family - she was my friend. Just a few of the many times I remember - making quilts for Christmas presents, playing games, going swimming, going shopping, trips to the park, building snowmen, making cookies and fudge, the late night phone calls, and so many more memories. Memories of all the good times, the happy times, the sad times, the laughter, the tears, the joy, the sadness. So many little things will trigger a memory - will bring her to my mind. Sometimes it is hard, but I find that as time goes by - I cherish each memory, each image that brings her to mind ----and I Smile.
