Photo A Day ~ 13 Mar

This cross belonged to my husband's grandmother. It's the only thing I have of hers with us here in Japan and it is precious to me. She was a strong woman, widowed very young with two children, and lived on her own until she was in her mid 90's. She passed away this past November at the age of 98. I walk by this cross every day and I am reminded of her. And her memory inspires me.
