...that there is NO picture of my two brothers and me together as adults. Due to different sunfortunate reasons that never happened and it made me so sad :( Our oldest brother passed away almost 4 years ago, so it will never happen. I cried all eve about it (yes I know it can't be helped but am kinda in a funk the past few days)
But then I also remembered IMIKINI ( a website) where you can make all kinds of collages, so I got working on one.
Here is the result, one I made of my 2 brothers and me together at last I will print it and frame it.
Hugs from Marian/Dutchy, a farmgirl from the Netherlands :)

I love it Marian, that is so special to have the three of you together, and ever close to your heart. The way you put it together is very pretty too! I know you are enjoying having it to look at daily! It has to make you happy Hugs, Ruth

such a wonderful idea Marian. It is so sweet that your brothers hold a special place in your heart!

I loffs it! What a good idea! I'm sorry you're sad but work it through and you'll be right as rain in no time!

Sorrow is a crazy thing isn't it Marian?
What a beautiful tribute to the three of you. I love it.
I have a twin brother that lives a thousand miles from me. The only time we ever got together was when we had a High School Class Reunion every 5 years. I just got back from a trip to see him and have realized that I cannot let that much time go between visits again.
Life is just too danged short!

Thamnks all for the sweet comments.
Debbie my brother lives in Thailand, so indeed thousands of miles between us too. I will go visit him again next year PTL. We didn't have contact at all for at least 7 years prior/during and after our mother's death, but since a few years we "talk" at least once a week through Skype and email often. And now the visits, so much better. Life is too short to bear grudges, esp. since he is my only living relative.
