Here is my Grandma Ida Mae with me, her first grandchild in a photo taken by her first great grandchild, my daughter Charlie (mirror), after my father’s funeral in 2017. We lost Ida Mae Montgomery last night. My Aunt Zona called me with the news during my drone set. To the vibration Grandma... Blessed be to my cousins and aunt and uncle for caring for her. Happy Mother’s Day y’all. #wishiwouldavisitedwithmyhaircut (at Rayne, Louisiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CABXrVOBIU_/?igshid=14ucpcyw7otjt

I would like to take this moment, while she is video conferencing in her Montessori educator role, to mark one year since Our Lady of the River/Creek/Stream Bed and I have been traveling these parts of the universe in tandem. She has this eye for spotting really special things in nature, and she makes me feel that I am a like find. I love you Lareisa @lareisa, aka captain of my quaranteam.
