So sweet and touching; the poem and the beautiful lady at the sewing machine. It made me cry. Since my mom passed away, I cry at the drop of a hat. :-(

I understand, Lori! I always tear up (really) in the Hallmark card commercials! And when I was looking at that picture, it reminded me of my sweet mother. She sewed all her life and was a talented lady. She made all my evening gowns during high school. I would draw a picture of what I wanted and she would get a pattern and do her thing on it to make it like I wanted. I always wanted a 'store bought' evening gown, but all my friends said they were jealous of my original gowns. When I look back, I realize how beautiful they truly were!

Thank you. Lori.
That graphic reminded me of my Mom and my Grandmother.

Billie could have posted yesterday's and today's Welcome Graphics. ;)
She sent both the Graphics and the poems to go with them.

I may be on my own tomorrow. :(
