Mrs. Roy is thankful this morning for her mother-in-law. Mom left for heaven a couple of years ago but she left behind lots of love. Right now I’m in my office with a crocheted shawl she made draped over my shoulders. You wouldn’t believe how warm and cozy I am. We have several afghans she made and many, many pieces of filet crochet that she spent untold hours making - everything from tablecloths to coasters. I even have this crocheted curtain in the spare bedroom.
Mrs. Roy also has a confession to make - I always liked Mom's gifts but I think maybe I appreciate these things more now that she’s gone. I wish I had told her more often how much I enjoyed the things she made me. I hope she knew.
Mrs. Roy hopes whoever reads this will take the time to tell someone they love them today. Don’t just assume they know.
I love you sis! Just so you know - the cloth Christmas and Prayer books you've made for me and my children along with the 15 years in the making treasure quilt will always be treasures to me that I will one down pass along to my children. I love you!
ReplyDeleteI love you, Mrs. Roy. And I love my red hat you crocheted for me. And all the post cards you send and the envelopes full of boxtops and the cards to my boys. So everytime I end an e-mail with I love you, know that I mean it!!
