First Time In Romantic Homes

I received my January issue of Romantic Homes today and could not wait to see how my Vintage Memory Heart looked amoung those beautiful pages. I turned each page carefully searching for my "Heart" and there it was on page 14...so exciting, to see something I created in a magazine that I have loved and collected for years. My 11 yr old grandaughter had just stopped in after school when the magazine arrived. She was very happy to see that her Mommom's heart was published in print! I felt like a proud Momma just reading the article and looking at the pictures. I guess I just did not realize how much it would mean to be in Romantic Homes. I want to thank Jacqueline deMontravel for giving me such a wonderful opportunity. It surely made my day in every way possible. I think this issue will be placed in my nightstand after I make sure everyone in the family has seen it. It is very inspirational to see something you created in a magazine that you know so many people love to browse through each and every month of the year. I can only hope this will be the first of many such chances. Thank you, Justine Lopez who walked me through the process. I was nervous about my first time and she guided me step by step, making it a pleasure to do. I am very honored to have joined the ranks of those published in one of my most favorite magazines..Romantic Homes.

My Favorite Christmas Ornament

One year my Mother-in-law made a special ornament for all her grown children...until this ornament comes out the season does not start for me. She crocheted little sleds and on them she sat our children in their birth order as tiny little bears...brown bears were our sons and pink bears were our daughters. I will never forget when she handed me that ornament with the four little bears on a red sled...there sat two brown bears,a pink bear and one more brown bear. My children: Donovan, Stashul, Bree and Nicholas. I was so touched that she made the ornaments so personal for all of us. This is a woman who gave birth to 11 children herself but always thought of others. I have many, many of her crocheted ornaments; snowflakes, angels and even a skiing snowman who after making she said,  was so hard she threw out the pattern...but my favorite will always be my little children on the red sled..it warms me to my core every year when I see it. My very special Mother-In-Law has since passed away but has left me with the most endearing memories any daughter-in-law could ask for...so win or not..I am glad I am able to share what a wonderful woman she was with all my facebook friends. Thanks, Becky
