Cloudy and rainy fall weather

I am in the process of writing thank you notes after my mother's death. My mother was one of 10 children so I have many aunts, uncles and cousins along with friends, coworkers and neighbors. My brother and sister helped; I have a dozen or so to go, but I am sure more memorial gifts will come in. My friend at the hospital said that she prayed when she was writing thank you notes after her mother's death, "Lord, you take care of the quality. I'll take care of the quantity." I'm sure the prayer helped especially with the notes to my daughter and son's friends. I wrote them from a different perspective. Otherwise, the notes would have been flat. I hope that there are not too many mistakes--names mispelled, forgotten gifts. I called my uncle yesterday to ask if any of his cousins had come. He couldn't think of any, but at the Mass someone said that she "remembered me wearing my mother's wedding dress." I am clueless, so I hope the Lord provides enlightenment. Rainly and gloomy here. A hot tea kind of day.
