  1. First anniversary - i remember the bittersweet feeling but also a relief that my mom wasn't suffering anymore. My mother passed also in the month January (1985). i imagine the holidays were somewhat sad this year, missing her presence. Did you sketch that - it's a very nice painting. I'm sure she surrounds u yet with her love.
