Simply Sunday Love: Tribute to Abuela

This post is non-wedding related, but it is an important day for me. 4 years ago on this day, I lost my grandma and unfortunately she was the only grandparent I had a relationship with so it devasted me. The fact that I think about her all the time and live my life inspired by her everyday just speaks for how much she meant to me. Her love for God and her selflessness always makes me want to be a better person and love God with all my heart as well. What a blessing that I had her in my life.

Of course, this isn't a sad day for me. It is a happy one. She died when all the flowers started blooming. So the blooming of flowers always makes me feel close to her. Everything feels alive and I always feel like she is around when I look at the flowers.

Yellow was her favorite color. My family usually makes a trip to her resting place. A lovely resting ground amidst fields of beautiful cows. I have moved, so I leave flowers for her here in her memory.
