When we were visiting in London last Christmas, daughter E gave us a calendar featuring photos of granddaughters ABC and JG. Most often, the photos were taken in that month the prior year, so turning the page for August brought a four generation photo with Paco from their visit last year.
The timing of that visit was a blessing, existing in the tiny window of their being able to get travel permission from the US and UK and before Paco’s final steep decline that led to his death in September.
I’ve been struggling this summer with the memories from last year, many of which have been difficult.
It’s good to have this photo with smiles that I can feel in my heart, even if my eyes fill with tears.

I had not seen this picture before – I always love multi-generational pictures. Lots of love there!

This was the one and only visit between Paco and JG. ABC was adorable as she remembered Paco from when she was two, even though she was four by the time of their visit. Right after this, Paco was diagnosed with pneumonia – and then finally the heart failure that had been missed for months. I will be forever grateful that E and family were given permission to travel when they were because this visit would not have been possible any later.
