Bakings, makings, decoratings, moving furniture...to sitting and enjoying the breezes and listening to the wind through the pines.
So many things remind me of her. I lost her too soon -at age 67- but every thing about her comes out in me.
The homemaking things I love to do - she taught me to do them.
The way she loved on each of us, family, and friends is instilled in me.
I will never cook as well as she did, but I sure can bake her cookies just as well!
I love to clean up the house after a season, and rearrange the furniture which still surprises everyone!
I love to make and create sewing, crocheting, crafts, miniatures...she saw this in me as a little one. I still have embroidery she had me doing when I was so young, and the doll house she bought at a moving sale which she eventually gave to me at age 5....
I cannot separate her from whom I became and I didn't realize this until she was with the LORD. I am so very thankful for all of what my mother gave in me.
