Remembering and another post for Katy..


Katy, I do think at times that you are a younger version of me....LOL...we have much in common, just that I am older than you...I loved your drawings....and here is one that I did a few years ago for my mom. It is of my grandmother's house...and I remember it well. It was a wonderful country home to visit in my childhood. One thing that sticks in my mind is the big jar of buttons my gram had in her pantry...I often wonder what happened to that. Anyway, I am blessed to have a few things from this home in mine....my grandparents livingroom set, which is now 100 years old, and is in our family room......I also have her china cabinet and a swivel wooden chair from a "pump organ" that I remember "trying" to play...LOL...as for the chair...I would sit on it and turn it until the seat almost flew off......good memories...anyway, back to the origional post.....I drew this photo for my mom and had it framed about a year ago. My mom used to tell me stories of her and one of her brothers climbing out the window over the back porch and sliding down into a snow bank many times.....
