What a blessing that your mom is still able to sew. Yikes - I'm not anywhere close to her age and it gives me fits some days! (You all must have strong sewing genes in your family!). Hope by the time you're reading this that you're home safely with that load of metal. And if you find any of that magic, save a wee bit for me - could use some these days.

Since we just moved to Idaho a few months ago, we're not going to be in NC with the rest of my family for Christmas. It's the first time in 50 years that I haven't been with my mom, my sisters, and especially my kids, but everyone is scattering to the winds, including us.<br /><br />I'm going to have to figure out a way to still feel included in the festivities...maybe I can Skype with the family while they're opening gifts!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />PamPam Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16973778341639952003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-65422955356686266.post-20790698123567703802011-12-09T11:35:02.875-06:002011-12-09T11:35:02.875-06:00How neat that your mom still sews and that you wil...How neat that your mom still sews and that you will visit her soon.

I got a little misty reading your post First of all My Dad's family all live in the Panama OK area. He moved to CA right out of High School, met my Mom ,had three kids and a blessed life. My parents moved back to OK about 18 years ago, to my dismay. Dad's gone on to live in heaven. Mom has remarried a great guy and still lives in Panama. So I was missing them, feeling like your little doll. We call that the horse face in our family. When I read about your mom making the Barbie clothes, (now I'm really crying, glad I'm alone in the house) My favorite Christmas was the year my mom made me a box of Barbie clothes. I remember opening up the box, and seeing all those shiny fancy fabrics. I still have them. I have two of those wooden hinged artist dolls dressed in some of them in my studio. Funny the things that trigger your emotion. I must have been ready for a good cry. I'm now going to take my horse face and find some tissue.
