Funny how sometimes time just escapes , gets away from you, one day you are twenty and the next fifty.....wossssssssh...just like that....well when I got these pictures of finished Squiggee mini stockings from my dear friend Cheri, it didn't occur to me that Dawson ( the Rudolph mini) might be getting a little old for a gift like this....after all ,I did a Birth Announcement piece for Cheri, his grandmother when he was born...well after a conversation with Cheri the other day and I asked about Dawson and his sister Elena...I was snapped back to the present ...he is 16.....oh my...I guess the little ornaments and cute Squiggee I send every Christmas ,will become part of his families tree and then his family...but oh my , the thought of a sixteen year old opening this gift, makes me laugh...he must think I am just one of those crazy old ladies that thinks he is still a little boy....and truth be told, I do think of him as a little boy....get a grip lady I say to myself...well, Dawson will have a collection of his own needlepoint ornaments when he marries...a nice thing to start his own family tree.....at least I haven't been sending him stuffed bunnies...
it amazes me how time rushes on in some parts of your life but drags in others...I guess it all evens out....sometimes it doesn't really matter because I can't remember what I painted two weeks ago....but then I have had this problem since my 20's...I paint so much, it is all becoming one big ball of work..lol...at least I still know where my shoes are......this morning!!!! you never know what tomorrow will bring...
