However, I think that it is precious that you continue this in honor of your wonderful grandmother. I'm sure since my family came from Poland, that I've lost family members during that horrible time of the holocaust. Not all family members came during their exodus to America. I am a third generation American of Polish descent.

I had bittersweet memories when I saw all the people around town with ashes on their foreheads last night.

But, I just cannot go back to that.
I understand where you are coming from, but thank you for your kind post. Its something I do ONLY in her honor. I sort of figured I would get some silly posts on this (excluding yours). Nothing to be upset or offended over~ This was just to see what some may have said they were willing to "give up".... Nothing "heart stopping" serious :-) even tho the "belly button" one was icky but funny....Have a very blessed weekend my dear friend!
