I hope Christmas was a blessing for all! Our Christmas was better than LaDonna and I thought it would be. Her son was able to come; she and Dad came for the day; LaDonna and her husband were able to Skype during present opening; and we were able to talk to my son and daughter-in-law in California. ( Evidently, Skype had an overload and we could not connect with them!) And needless to say, the grandchildren were bouncing off the walls and ceiling! Momma would have really enjoyed seeing them and their reactions! I think we all had Momma with us in our thoughts and hearts.
I would like to thank all of you for your kind comments and encouragement. For those of you who have mentioned that you would be interested in the walker bag pattern,I dug out my pattern and the following is the website.

Hope you can enjoy creating with it! Best wishes! And you were right...my mother-in-law loved it! She told my husband that the other residents were all talking about it and wanted one!!!

so glad to hear that you had a good Christmas. The first one is always hard. This was our second, and we had a noisy house full here too!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you might be in business making those walker bags. I had made one for my mom, and she loved it as well.
So good to hear from you again!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
It's wonderful that you were able to celebrate Christmas with your Dad and Diana. I'm sure hearts were heavy. My sister passed away on Christmas Eve 12 years ago, but time eventually heals the pain. My best to you and all your family for a Happy and Healthy New Year.
ReplyDeleteGlad your Christmas was okay. The first Christmas after a loss of a parent is a hard one for everyone.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear from you! I have missed you. I am glad LaDonna and your Dad were able to come to you for the day and I bet she was glad her son was there. I agree with Betty Lou - each year will get easier. Thinking of you!
