In remembrance of my mother

Tweet

There are many times in my life when I an enjoying doing an activity such as cooking, sewing, crocheting or even just watching tv, that those that I love come to mind. The fondest memory of my mother is when I was young and she took the time to crochet a throw blanket for me. After she gave it to me, I asked her to teach me how to crochet, so she took the time to teach me and then gave me some books on learning the basic steps. At the time I was around 13 or 14 years old. At the time I did not know I would only have a few more years to spend with my mother. My mother passed away when I was 20 years old. As some people already know and some will one day, time goes on, as you get older and are raising your kids and also working, you don't have a lot of extra time on your hands. So I quit crocheting until my kids were grown and I retired, now I have all the time in the world. So every time that I crochet it reminds my of the times I spent with my mother, I just got done with the throw in the picture, I always wanted to do like my mother did and make one for my daughter. I think it will make a great Birthday gift. Do any of you do things that remind you of someone special?
