African Violets hold a special meaning for me. 

When my grandma died 32 years ago, she received tons of flowers and a few people sent plant arrangements instead of flowers. 

My mother still has a few of those plants to this day.

I was given a small African Violet. I had it for years. It even went with me to college. 

Sadly, that particular plant died when we moved into our current house. The shock of relocation, lack of direct sunlight or lack of attention from having a new baby, I have no clue. 

I gave up on plants when the kids were little. Let's just say, I don't have a very good green thumb. 

A few years ago, I purchased this purple Violet in memory of my grandma. On the anniversary of her death this year, I added this pink one. I love walking into my sewing/craft room and seeing these beautiful flowers.

 It feels like she is still here with me. 

Till Next Time,

Monique
