Ever since I can remember, we have always worked puzzles together over the holidays. A thousand times over, I can picture my mom sitting at the dining room table at the beach house, her glasses perched on the end of her nose and a lamp nearby...working away. We would laugh and make silly chit chat while saying "got another one" each time a piece fit. When I hit my teenage years, I used to have my Walkman stuck to my head during our puzzle time which now that I look back must have been just so obnoxious.
This year, we set up a table in the den so we wouldn't miss any of the action on TV. It made me miss Momma so much because I knew where she would be sitting if she had been with us. And I know she would have gotten a kick out of Solon joining the tribe:)
