Toledo

 The last time I was in Toledo was at Uncle Moe’s 80th birthday party.  He was the only one that made it that far and beyond.   Aunt Bertha couldn’t be at the party because she needed full time care at the old folks home where she lived.

When I went to visit Aunt Bertha I discovered that Aunt Doris was living in the same home!  I’m so glad I got to see her.  I wish I had told her how important my time as a child was with her and Uncle Frank.  They gave me a glimpse of an intact family.  Aunt Doris let me in on another way of being a mother.  She made me feel well loved.
