Wrinkle

A slight fold in fabric or skin. Come on...be brave and show us your wrinkles!

When I saw today's word I immediately knew which picture I could use. The picture I mean is this one....


My granny (she died almost 2 years ago) meeting her greatgranddaughter (just turned 3 last Dec.) for the first time, 2 weeks after her birth. My granny was 95 at that time. And at that age most of use (if we live that long) have wrinkles.
A few months later I took another picture of the two of them, both a little older....
I tought this moment was so special that I made a scrapbookpage about it.......

The quote (in Dutch) at the bottom of the page says:

Some people, no matter how old they are, never loose their beauty; it only replaces from their face to their hart........

My granny was very interested in her grandchildren and loved it when she became a greatgrandmother. Luckely my kids have good memories to their greatgrandmother. The little girl in the picture didn't get to know her that well. She was only 1 year when our granny died.
