the little chateau.

there are places you visit all your life, some so ingrained in your memory while others less so. certain places conjure sweet memories: sitting around a table with your sisters dressed in sunday's best. surrounded by all of your grandparents. happiness.

no matter how many times i visit olga's little chateau, i am reminded of those days (so near yet so far) that my sisters and i huddled around that tiny table - so proud to have our own little corner to call our own.

we've grown up so much. so many things have changed. but returning to places like this bring me to the realization that while a lot has changed, mostly everything has stayed the same. we are still those little girls, sitting around that tiny table, laughing and loving. and loving.
