In Memory of Mutti

Today was my mom’s birthday. She passed two years ago. I was on a walk today, and saw this flower that reminded me of her, because she loved wild flowers. I didn’t have my camera, taken on my iPhone X. Happy birthday, Mom!

Nice shot and Happy Belated BD, Mutti. My mom called her mother, Mutti, as well. (East German) RIP to both moms, they are sorely missed.

Thanks! My mom was born in Hamburg, and spent the war years in a little village called Iphofen in Upper Bavaria, near Kitzingen. She missed her train to school in Kitzingen one day and had to walk, so she was spared when Allied bombers bombed the school, and the shelter caved. She loved to paint sunflowers, so whenever I see one, I think of her.
