Helen's Legacy


This is one of the Christmas ornaments
Helen sent my girls when they were small.
I have been looking for it to give to
Erin and now I find it on her tree
already. I know my brain is fried.

I don't know how Helen made such
pretty printing on it. She made
several pretty things and sent them
to my girls. I know they wanted to
move and live with her as their Mother
is an old sour puss.

I remember my aunts. When I was a child I thought they could "hang the moon". I still do.

Aunt Winnie always made my kids ornaments and we always love putting them on the tree. She really was artistic - I wish I could show you a picture of the calico wreath she made me.

:) I've had an Aunt Elizabeth who was like Helen. Although my Mom is (and was) a sourpuss, I can understand how she got that way from all that was included in her lot :(

Thank God for sweet memories and families.
