We were closest to my grandma's family.<BR/><BR/>Peg leg pirate- Thank you. I thought of you as I drove into town!<BR/><BR/>LauraHinNJ- Thank you. What's funny is, my grandma doesn't understand why anyone would be interested in her stories. I guess it's a Minnesota Scandinavian cultural thing or something. But, we will talk. <BR/><BR/>Lynne- I'm sure you do miss your mom's voice. I see my mom in my dreams a lot, and she's always healthy and walking like before she had MS. But that's a good idea, getting audio recordings. Even better- record her speaking in Swedish! I always regret not taking Swedish classes at my very Swedish college.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07879771115420282834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10304963.post-1294821920944239702008-02-21T08:15:00.000-06:002008-02-21T08:15:00.000-06:00It would be great to get an audio recording of you...It would be great to get an audio recording of your Grandma telling those stories.

Even when they are ready, I don't think we ever are. They are our connection to the way things were, and what (I think) many of us wish could be again.<BR/><BR/>I am glad that this has inspired you to talk more with your grandma. Cherish the time you have with her, and do your best to remember the stories she has to tell.barefoot gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18089017268890241495noreply@blogger.com
