My almost DIL made me the most thoughtful present ever. She sewed a crossbody bag for me made of fabric from one of my dad’s coats we donated. It’s beautiful. She’s really talented.
Each year, I made cookies and put them out with milk for Santa. Every morning, there was a letter, toys and a book. The letter discussed obstacles overcome and things that still needed to be worked on. It was praise with incentive for change.
Santa is going to write my mother a note telling her how proud he is of her during this difficult year and asking her to use her hearing aids to make life better for herself.
People are stuck at various ages in my mind. It’s not that I don’t simultaneously hold a picture of their current age, but when I think of them, they’re locked into a certain era. When I think of Bruce Willis, he was young, sly and had hair.
