Sunday Evening at Granny's

A crackling fire
The ticking clocks.
The little ones pulling out toys and blocks.
The antique hall tree loaded down with wraps.
Pop in his easy chair catching up on naps.
Granny crocheting a warm winter shawl.
 Candles in the windows bringing cheer to all.

I think you wrote this poem! You writing always paints such wonderful word pictures. So did you experience this? It is Norman Rockwell perfect. A memory gem.

What a lovely poem, Karen. It would be so nice to have one of our grandmother's warm Winter crocheted blankets. : ) I love that you write down all the memories you have of your loved ones.

Oh gee, I wanna go there. Please? That was so special. Makes me very nostalgic. I didn't have those kinds of memories at my grandparents' homes because of distance and it just didn't happen. But I can imagine that and wish I could go back and do that...or do that for my grandchildren, but I only have one, who is now 19 and lives too far away. I may have to adopt some grandchildren. Loved this so much.
