I have been meaning to do this post for a while...sometimes I will go to do something and there will be a little message like this:

It is a sticky note on my laptop.  Every time I see it I smile.

I didn't always save them.  I don't know why I didn't think to start.

Then one day I was downstairs where my Juki 98Q resides.  But I have not been sewing on it in a while.  I happened to sit down and look at it and there was this:

Notice, she had written 'mom,' but it is crossed out with a pencil...I didn't know if you can see the pencil marks or not.  they are sort of light.  What pleasant surprise.

I forgot to take a picture of a Christmas card that she made me last year.  I had left it hanging from then until the other day when she was here.  But she replaced it with this:

And I have to tell this little story...it will melt your heart.  We always lay and talk as she goes to sleep.  And she said, 'I love you, Mamaw.'  And I said, 'I love you, too.  I love you more than you love me.'  She said, "Mamaw, I loved you from the day I was born, and I will love you till the day I die.'  I got a lump in my throat and couldn't do anything but  hug her.
