We asked...and you all ANSWERED!
This year, in honor of all the incredible moms in the world, we wanted to hear what makes your mom so special. We asked you to tell us about a fond memory or a key lesson you’ve learned from the mother figure in your life.
We got a HUGE response - you all have incredible women in your lives, and such heartfelt and cherished memories with them! It was so difficult to pull out just a few of them to share...if we could, we'd share them all (but then this post would be ridiculously long)!
Without further ado, let's hear it for MOM:
"Mom loved crafting of all sorts!! She belonged to the club craft monthly and drove my Dad crazy!! Thanks to her and my grandmother I love to sew and knit!! Now I get to drive my husband crazy!! HAHA" - Linda M.
"My Mom taught me to crochet, the first needle craft I learned, and from then on I learned many other needle crafts and to this day I practice all of the needle crafts she taught me." - It Betz
"When we have family reunions, all the girls get together and craft for several days." - Carla H.
"My most memorable memory is when we got glamour shots and they did our hair and makeup the same." - Melissa M
"Going Sunday shopping after church with her and having lunch at the Woolworths little in-store diner." - Wendy D.
"Mom and I fishing to catch perch and sunfish. Seeing who could catch more using the same worm. Yes, it is a bit gross but we fished all day long, caught tons of fish, and laughed the whole time." - Kristy S.
"My best memories of my mom are the ones in which she took time to show me how to make things- sew, embroidery, quilt, bake a cake, garden and can along with many other homesteading projects. These are all special memories that I cherish and use to this day as my mom passed away last December." - Jennifer B.
"Crafting. From baskets to felting to sewing and more. I now take care of her as she once took care of me." - Candi R.
"My best memories is when she was the leader of our girl scout troop! From Daisies to Juniors, we were always crafting and doing so many fun things! We actually learned skills instead of being passed along to get the badge." Shonna F.
Thank you for sharing your treasured stories and memories of times with mom! We loved reading about your experiences crafting, playing in nature or learning about life. From simple gestures to profound life lessons, each memory shows the invaluable role Mothers play in shaping our lives.
Happy Mothers Day from all of us at Living Dreams Yarn!
