My mom had a box she kept her “treasures” in. It was a comfort to me when she passed away.

Wonderful, encouraging quote and beautiful photo – the ponderosa is my favorite tree. It’s full of memories from my childhood.
My Mom was a big Amy Carmichael fan.

I love ponderosas too -especially the warm-coloured bark. May you know the God of all comfort even better this season, Ruth.
