Willow Tree “Close to Me”,
I got two of them actually, one was for the mother of a friend of mine who was dying and another for one of her daughters. My only regret is that at the time I got a third for the oldest sister. This turned out to become a very important expression of love; where love could be felt when it could not be fully articulated due to illness and the prospect of the loss of a very dear loved one. I just happened to see it advertised on another site and afterwards I could not get it out of my mind, so saying that, I was prompted to get it. Like I said, I wish I hadn’t held back on the third one as this is a wonderful and even astonishing token of love, compassion, tenderness, understanding, acceptance, and forgiveness.

What you must know:,
When my mother suddenly and unexpectedly passed away, I was devistated. Over the years I have been through several friends, and have learned badly that I shouldn’t trust. But my mom was always someone I trusted deeply and loved spending time with; shes my best friend. When she passed away in 10′, I was only 17, and still didn’t have but 1 childhood friend. I was very alone.
I wanted to do something special that would help give me closeure and peace of heart that we were still somewhat physically together. I purchased 2 of these beautiful figures; I have on in my bedroom and I placed the other in her coffin on the day of her funeral. I look at it and feel that she is right there, holding it too.
These are beautiful, and easy to win your heart. Study and simple, these little pieces can be placed anywhere in the house.
I came to this product when looking for a willow tree figure to give to my dad for christmas, I highly reccomend you purchase this one, if not another. You will love it.
