Monet's Garden is somewhere very special to me. It was the last time I was able to take my father out to visit, when we lived in Paris.

It is a beautiful garden and a lovely place to remember and to heal. All of us understand that kind of loss. It is very painful and takes time to heal. I hope that you have a sweet and soothing weekend.
