Ellie had to be the funnest Mother-In-Law ever and she was always ready to go and do. I have many fond memories of the real adventures we had together in the wilds of Canada that will always bring a smile to my face. I love you Ellie, You were the best!

The roses we picked were pink ,the lilacs were lavender, the wild violets and blueberries were blue.We picked and foraged our way through the boreal forest, together, just the two of us. How special for me. You said it was a sweet reminder of your childhood, all the things you liked to do.Only you know Mom, what Im talking about as we too had one eye watching for bears.
These moments and all the memories throughout the years are embedded deeply in my heart, my soul and my entire being.The best part of me, came from you.
I love you Mom, sit comfortably on my shoulder, I need you as my Guardian Angel.
