Sweet Susie kept me in the loop. I'm so relieved to know that things went well. I will write an email soon. Wanted to give you some time.

Though we have never met in person, you have a special place in my heart. Hometown folks rate high on my list of folks to keep in my prayers. <br />A little fun tidbit. Last year I found a box of papers in the back corner of a little used closet. My hubby's mom died when he was 14, after they had lost a daughter to pneumonia. He was one of those menopause babies and his mom adored him beyond measure. There were precious pictures of him that I had not seen in years and years. He was raised in Amherst, Mass. That sleepy little college town had a small town Independence Day parade. The kids decorated their bikes and trikes with all kinds of streamers and flags. There were also lots of Halloween parties, birthday parties, and Christmas decorations. Because July 4th is right around the corner, I am especially thrilled about looking for those pictures again to post some of him on his flag and streamer draped tricycle.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17690540203303149561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702816552340511485.post-68922283254233851892016-06-20T10:02:44.322-05:002016-06-20T10:02:44.322-05:00So cute Laurie!!!
