Good Lord Jill, parts of your story are so very sad. I'm laughing though at how you went to KFC instead of Mickey D's lol. God has brought all of us through the tribulations though. And, like I said to Nella, we _Will see our Moms and Grandparents and Dads and all of our loved ones again someday. Amen? Blessings to all! -----Original Message----- From: jill rossiter via Nfb-krafters-korner Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2018 9:26 PM To: Nfb-krafters-korner at nfbnet.org Cc: jill rossiter Subject: [Nfb-krafters-korner] Want to know Wednesday answers What is your favorite hand crafted gift made by your child? Well I have 3 children so I must pick 3 items. Olivia made a sweet Mother's day card last year at school. It asked questions and she had to reply with the answers she thought were correct about her Mom. She said that I was 16 ft tall, weighed 80 lbs and was 56 years old. Lucas made a wall hanging for me with his hand prints in a circle which looked like a wreath. John made me a wooden nati
vity set for my yard out of wood. What type of things have you made for your mother? My mother died in 1991, I was 21 at that time. I made her lots of drawings as a child. I loved to draw and color when I was little. I made her a stuffed fabric Christmas tree when I was in 8th grade. I still make things for my mother. I make silk flower arrangements for my parents grave. Did your mother teach you a craft and if so what was it? My Mama was a wonderful seamstress. She taught me to sew. I wished I had learned more. She also taught me to do simple hand embroidery and cross stitch when I could see. Do you and your mother craft together and if so what kind of projects do you enjoy sharing? I can not craft with her, but I do craft with my 2 younger children. Olivia and I make pony bead projects, loom knitting, and vacation Bible school crafts. Lucas used to help me with safety pin beading projects when Ken and Theresa taught classes. What words of wisdom would you most want to share with yo
urchild? Most important of all, I want my children to know that God loves them and that Jesus died so that they could have eternal life. I want them to treat people with love and kindness. I want them to share these gifts with everyone they meet. I want my children to know how much I love them! What would you like to say or do for your mother to express your love? I would love to one day be able to organize a cancer charity fund raiser in honor of my mother. Evem if it was collecting chemo hats for patients. Also if you like, please describe a memorable moment that you shared with your mother or with your child. I remember when my mother and I first found out that I was going blind. We both were so upset and uncertain about what the future would hold for me. I was 16 and had just been told by the retina specialist of my prognosis. We left the doctors office and wanted to stop at McDonald's for a burger . We went through the drive through and we both had been crying and my eyes were d
ialated big as my head. My mother ordered the burgers and the girl on the speaker said " I am sorry Mam, but we only sell chicken"! My mother had driven into the KFC which was next to the Mc Donald's. That was the first time I remember laughing about being blind, I told Mama, I thought I was the one going blind! We both had a good laugh through our tears. _______________________________________________ Nfb-krafters-korner mailing list Nfb-krafters-korner at nfbnet.org http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/nfb-krafters-korner_nfbnet.org Division Website: http://www.krafterskorner.org Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/NFB-Krafters-Division/269246643109571 Krafters-Korner Blog http://krafterskorner.org/ "Follow NFB Krafters Korner on Twitter: Our Handle is @craftingblind Don't have a Twitter account?
