It's Almost Here...



Easter is almost here.

It's a holiday mixed first, with sorrow, then unparalleled joy.

As a kid, my mother always bought new outfits for five daughters.

How she and my father ever paid for the new duds for all those kids is amazing.

We had bonnets, shiny new shoes, fancy dresses, little purses, and white gloves!  

Those were lah-dee-dah times.

If you celebrate Easter, no matter where you are, may it be blessed and happy.

DO YOU HAVE SPECIAL PLANS FOR EASTER THIS YEAR?

Oh boy do I remember modeling our Easter clothes coming down the staircase and singing "In Your Easter Bonnet". Wonderful memories for sure. Mom had a special envelope for clothes, shoes etc. She had envelopes for bills and pleasure...she was something else.
