Thank you. Inspired by the story of a friend's great-grandmother. She and her husband were homesteading in Iowa, and she stayed on the claim with the children while he went back for supplies - a two-month trip, as I recall. During that time, three of her five children died, and she buried them herself.

How poignant, and real.
