September October
November December
—————————————————————————————————————
Well December’s calendars have been made and hand delivered on Thanksgiving Day to all 4 of my sisters. It has been quite a project that was most wonderful in that I would be thinking about my sisters as I was making the calendars.
(Note to Self: Need to get a new photo taken of all 5 of us together. This was the most recent photo I could find, and it is 7 years old. Definitely need a new photo.)
There are lots of memories. How about growing up with 5 girls (6 including mom) under 1 roof and only 1 bathroom… 1 sink and no separate shower, just a tub… for the whole family!! Lots of clothes sharing and hand-me-downs, too. And yet, we felt rich. I remember Dad would get up so early to use the bathroom and then turn it over to us girls! Not sure when my 1 and only brother got his turn in there! He was the oldest and left home to join the Navy when I was only 8.
Those were simpler times with simpler dreams. Or maybe it was just that I was the kid and not the adult! lol In any case this project was one that I’m really happy I did.
Thanks for dropping by today.
Happy Crafting!!
