This spur-of-the-moment purchase turned out to be a treasure. Dean thinks my solar-powered rainbow maker is tacky but I love it. I sent one to my mother, well into her dementia, and every time she saw the rainbows on the wall, even her final month when little brought her joy, her face would light up and she’d wistfully say, “Oh yeah.”

When I first looked at the picture I agreed with Dean, but after reading the bit about your mother I’m firmly on your side.
Me too. You gave us a sweet image.
I love that in her final months, you were still able to give your mother pleasure. How lovely.
