An heirloom
I inherited these little pictures from my Grandma O’Bryant. They’re of Kathleen O’Bryant who I was named after. Kathleen was my grandmother’s first child and she drowned in a pool when she was just two.
Whenever I look at these pictures I think of my sweet grandmother and her heartache. I love my grandmother and It makes me happy to think of her. I’ve always felt close to my grandmother and my name has been an important part of that bond I have with her. The pictures have been lying on my desk since I unpacked them and I can’t figure out what I should do with them. I received them when we lived in Tennessee and I never figured out what I wanted to do with them there either.
