Back in the spring of 2006, one of my first graders brought me a vase of cut lilacs one day. I wrote a thank you note to her family, explaining how happy they made me as they reminded me of my gramma because they are usually at full bloom right around her birthday at the end of May. That same family showed up on the last day of school that year with a gorgeous lilac bush for our yard. Fast forward 8 years, and that same bush (has survived a transplant to our current house!) blooms full with the most gorgeous lilacs each spring.
This year my gramma would have celebrated her 90th birthday... so Hattie and I cut some lilacs in her honor.
