Thoughts of Grace

I am grateful for Autumn leaves falling, Panera-yummy brocolli and cheese soup, Trader Joes, Christmas jo-jos, paper bags and re-connecting with a friend.
Memorable moment – Afterover a year of Facebooks friending, messaging and telephone conversations – my friend from long ago, my daughter and I were abel to meet for dinner, laughter, sharing memories and a little quilting business on the side, Quilt’m by Sunflower Designs
Be thankful for someone – Today, my Mom, Frances Topper, is my hero.
A note in her birthday card from my oldest brother said something like “Thank you for all the lessons you taughts us by example. I wish I had paid more attention,” He and I commented: she didn’t know she was teaching and we didn’t know we were learning.
Our Mother was so good at that being a good example. Whether it be
the ‘mom’ thing
a homemaker,
a vow-keeping wife
an everlearning woman
a #1 Grandma
an adjuster who makes the best of her changing circimstances (and makes it look easy)
a person who enjoys life and
one who has a really good forgetter.
Thank you, Mom, much of what I am is only because you provided me with a strong firm foundation on which to grow.
I love you.
