Thou art thy mother's glass and she, in thee, calls back the lovely April of her prime.
I finally managed to finish my mum's christmas present in time. Just! It didn't turn out quite as I wanted it too, because I hadn't left myself enough time. That's something I'll remember in future. However, mum loved it; it made her cry. Mission accomplished!
Hope you all had a lovely day yesterday.

ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind comments. Next year, every one's presents will be homemade. (Except the childrens; even I'm not brave enough for that. Mercenary little devils!)
ReplyDeleteKirsten, I'm so pleased you bought one of Rainey's paintings, it couldn't have gone to a better home.
