Revelament of the Mother, Secret Life of Bees

P. 243
"After a few minutes, August said, "How did you know to come here? I pulled the picture of Black Mary from my pocket and showed it to her. It belonged to my mother. I found it in the attic at the same time I found her photograph...."

Lilly found her mother's picture of Black Mary and a Photograph, the only things she had of her mother. This made her feel really close to her. I do not have anything that came from my biological mother, no memories, no stories. I wish that I had a picture of her so I know how Lilly feels by having at least one thing of her mother's.

Does anyone else have something really special that they have from one of their parents?

My dad's old t-shirts. It sounds weird but he had all these funky shirts that he used to where during his docter-hippie days and then one day he gave them to me and my sisters. I love them, they remind me of what used to be.

i have an old photo book of pictures of my mom when she was younger. It is fun for me to look at her now and see how different she looks in the pictures of her 20 years ago.
