I love to write, but have been hijacked to the Facebook world--HELP!!!! Since I've been spending most of my time between FB and Ancestry.com, my poor blog has been neglected. I'll try to get back into this eventually... *****PS The blog list is at the bottom of the blog*****

Love From My Mom...

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!


My sweet Mama, who lives in Rodney, Michigan sent me a fun Valentine's package yesterday. Inside was this beautiful afghan that Mom lovingly knitted for me. I feel wrapped in love when I put it around me...

I just love the cables; aren't they beautiful? Someday I hope to be able to whip out one of these babies just like Mom has been doing for years.
As Mom would say--"It's a smile maker"... I was so pleased to receive it just in time for Valentine's day and while we still have the chilly weather to enjoy such heartwarming things...


Thank you, Mom--You're the best!


Mom even made her own cards this year--so lovely and sweet, just like she is...


Also in the box I found this darling Holly Hobbie heart-handled mug. Just had to do a tea tray picture shoot just for you Mom! Under the mug and teapot are knitted hearts Mom gave me in previous years; can't use them for dish cloths though, they're too pretty!



It's such a nice feeling to have these special things from my Mom to enjoy and to think of all the fun times we've had together...



Hope you enjoyed this Valentine blog, Mom....
