I am touched and happy for the bids on this day of remembering.<br /><br />I'm sure my mother didn't actually keep the same poppy for 50 years... but then again.... Have you ever met my mother?!<br /><br />Janice- I'm not at all sorry for your long comment. Made me sort of teary, (just watched the movie "Up" which is a wonderful, wonderful little diddy that makes you think about life, and aging, and then of course- one's parents)<br /><br />I wonder what sort of machine you were gifted? And how you must miss your mother. and you said "all my sisters" which made me wonder- how many? (I only have four....) Sisters that is. I had three brothers as well!<br /><br />My mother is quite a little spirited thing. I must write a post on her soon.<br /><br />xo xo, thanks in part to all of you lovely people, I've had a wonderful birthday indeed.joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10269164806627544548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495942811046981741.post-22631139566897736852009-11-11T19:35:52.325-06:002009-11-11T19:35:52.325-06:00I am 'flap'erghasted...

(me too - Mennonite, not named Joyce or from Manitoba) Well, here is to Mennonites. All my male relatives were COs - and you know that does not stand for commanding officers.<br /><br />I will bid $60, but if it is open all day tomorrow, that may not be good enough. I LOVE the bag.<br /><br />I have my mom's old sewing machine - all my sisters already had their own when she gave it up 3 years ago. She is now in heaven, sew it is even more precious. The cabinet is the same one, with the varnish all softened by years of my mother's arm resting there. <br /><br />I am getting all teary, because it is less than a year since she left us. I was sewing today - just mending is about all I do, and I found lots of buttons in one of the drawers - I want to send them to you. <br /><br />Mom was a good Mennonite woman - amazing cook, and could sew anything and was creative like you. I have lots of quilts with vintage fabric, but did not know that until I started reading your blog. She was also a good woman. I knew a few good Mennonites who were not good wo(men).<br /><br />Sorry for writing a tome.<br /><br />Thank you for giving me another way to appreciate mom.janicenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495942811046981741.post-60899252079483051812009-11-11T14:50:50.788-06:002009-11-11T14:50:50.788-06:00i like your thoughts...(reminds me of a song i hav...i like your thoughts...(reminds me of a song i have been listening to on repeat for the last 2 weeks)....and WOW...your mom saved the same poppy every year? for real? my poppies usually fall off my jacket within 24 hours of purchasing one.<br /><br />happy birthday!Roohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09014829847475377261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495942811046981741.post-11801124439010659702009-11-11T13:05:46.991-06:002009-11-11T13:05:46.991-06:00Your post is awesome.
