finished should be with you on Tuesday!
I was concerned I didn’t hear from you yesterday and was worried it might not get there in time!?!
Let me know how you are, just a quick line.
LOVE YOU Mum
LX’
We have that sort of relationship.
I woke up yesterday morning and thought I am pratting about making birthday cards for Leo’s.
Why not a card for Audrey, so yesterday afternoon I got a wiggle on and made one for my lovely mum.
Alright it is a hastily made effort, but with love in every stitch.
She is dying.
So making something quickly is good...I couldn't get to my dad when he was dying so I posted one of his favourite wild flowers and a ripe strawberry both from my garden. He loved them. So here's a ((0)) hug for you x
ReplyDeleteThank you gz, it is so good to know you understand and the hug is much appreciated. As always it is the little things you do that are most important and mean the most to the recipient. Grand gestures at the end of the day are as nothing in comparison.

Your card is beautiful and will be received most gratefully I feel sure. I think Audrey will appreciate the thought and love in your card more than anything else. Sending another hug to join GZ's. xx
ReplyDeleteWell hardly beautiful MG, it just hit me why hadn’t I thought until then to make her a card. Slow on the uptake or what?
DeleteAudrey is one hell of a buttoned up woman, she doesn’t show her emotions or cry. The emotions and saying I love you I have managed to win her over. I think she feels with me she can be herself, we talk freely about anything and everything and this late in the day the freedom to say I love you has been a revelation for her. She often says I am the only one she can truly be herself with. Me, as you might imagine says it like it is, preferably with knobs on! Death, we talk about as the natural event it is, unlike her other friends who shy away from such discussions.
Cyber hugs are good, thank you MG.

Dear Audrey. You are making her a lovely card.
ReplyDeleteWell not so sure about lovely but it does have love in every stitch. I did get an email last night so she is still alive, if you class sleeping all day alive? I say are you practising for the big sleep Aud? Her reply I’m not ready yet! To die on your own terms, what better way, let’s hope she gets her wishes.

What a nice way to say 'I love you Mom' it shows that you care a lot!
ReplyDeleteMany hugs,
Moni
I can’t draw, but I can sew; these ‘cards’ are my way of being artistical. Oddly people do seem to like them, well to be honest I don’t really care if they don’t, it gives me pleasure and prevents me from being even more of a pain than I already am!?!
DeleteBIG hugs back Moni...

DeleteThank you for the tip.
