its the little things.....

I stole this from my moms house .... I found it behind the couch when we moved it to make room for the hospital bed ..... It plucked out of a stack of papers to be thrown away.I looked up... balled it up in my hand and stuffed it in my pocket in a flash!! Like it was gold......... It is gold to me , cause you see this right here is what my moms hand writing used to look like. this is the hand writing that is on every one of my birthday cards ,every sack lunch she made me .... i used to spend hours trying to "forge" this hand writing......... its the hand writing on my birth certificate..... this hand writing is gone now.... and when i saw this piece of her i had to have it. And ive been carrying  it around with me since.. no one would under stand its value but i cant let it out of my possession......................................

This Chair is on the auction block 75.00 bucks that's it.. 75.00 dollars for her favorite chair... 75.00 dollars for the chair that she rocked my grand babies in ...75.00 dollars for the chair that held her and my children..... 75.00 dollars for the chair that she was so happy to move into after hip surgery.....75.00 dollars for the chair she sat and talked and drank coffee outta every day......75.00 for this now empty chair.....................

  1. You do have a treasure there. I still have a letter from my Great Grandmother tucked away in my Bible, and handwritten recipes from my Grandmother...little things do mean so much.
