The sum of many details

My mother-in-law Ann broke her leg at 3am on Monday.  She is now resting comfortably at Maine Medical Hospital in Portland awaiting surgery.  Her daughter Barb brought this poinsettia today to brighten the windowsill.  It is a  small gesture that is symbolic of the love and concern that the family shares for each other's welfare.  They are gathering from far and wide this week to be together and care for Ann.  It's hard to capture this beauty - the love and concern of a family.  It is the sum of many details.
