Sad - Happy
Today my red lid dish was given back and for the first time I felt tears of sadness about my daughter moving away. We have this dish that passed from her to me and back again. Whoever had the dish, had to fill it with something and give it back. Sometimes it was filled with dinner for my daughter who worked late from time to time. She would call from work and ask if someone could pick her up from the train and take her home - then I would divide our meal into three and give her the red lid dish. She would return it with something she'd made on the weekend. She's moved away and I've been left with the dish. Happy memories.
