She still had Tad till 1871. He was a lively, positive, energetic character, and she loved and took pride in him - don't you think as long as Tad lived she also experienced happy moments with and due to him? And - what is a day of true happiness? IMO happiness is predominantly to be found in the "little" everyday delights - like a blackbird singing from a rooftop in the golden setting sun of a quiet, peaceful evening. She travelled Europe, and sure travelling, the impressions of all the different landscapes and sights, distracted her at times and provided such touching moments.
