I lost my grandparents when I was young and didn't have the chance to really sit with them. I lost my parents several years ago and reading your post makes me think, as I often do, how so many people don't until it's too late to just sit with their parents and grand parents and just listen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8881189520578385241.post-35589632189617406712008-10-06T19:30:00.000-04:002008-10-06T19:30:00.000-04:00Another wonderful visit with Granny!

My grandmother would save three leftover peas and cream them for the next meal - frugal to the end of her life at 103 years. I feel so fortunate to have had such a wonderful role model and I know that you will too. <BR/><BR/>I am so glad her machine is back. I soooo wish that my machine had the hip bar instead of the floor pedal. I loved that feature. I can imagine how thrilled the recipient was with the quilt.
