You have such a great way of writing both about quilting (of which I am an enthusiast) and life in general. <br /><br />As our parents get older, we certainly put a different hat on, don't we? I have been giving my mother gentle lectures this summer to "simply slow down" when she walks. Her brain is moving faster than her legs are reacting, and she has experienced some pretty scary falls. <br /><br />Thank you for taking time out of your busy mornings to write your blog! Your writing is a daily vitamin for all of us.twebsterarmstronghttp://www.twebsterarmstrong.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-49963527159132060652010-08-04T10:02:10.921-05:002010-08-04T10:02:10.921-05:00What a day for your dad -- and you!
