You know, I guess we take it for granted that our parents do things… Mum embroidered all her life… I thought "every Mother does that"

Just like all my children thought that every Mother had a shed and went out there to play with fabric.

Joshua, aged 33, had one of my books in his bag the other day…. "What are you doing with that Joshy." I said….

"Oh, I'm going to show it to my mates at Strath……"

His comment later the next day… "Gees they thought your work was Wicked"

Joshy is my staunchest supporter… almost getting in a fight with a fellow worker over whose Mother was the most clever a few years back……! I shake my head and smile.

So now I will make sure Mums work is  appreciated and remembered…. and I thank you all for you kind comments.
