Thanks Mom!

Not long ago I sat on the floor to do some pinning and measuring for Joe's slacks. 

I thought about all the times Mom did the same thing as she sewed and mended for us. 

Thanks Mom for insisting that we learn these skills. 

Her example and teaching not only gave me skills 

but also gave me confidence that I could (and should) do these kinds of tasks. 

Thanks Mom!
