No one could make them better. Then one year they sat it outside and ants got in it. Was such disappointment that year. It was something we really looked forward to.<br /> Loved the gift of hand written letters through the years. Now, no one wants to take the time to set down and use a little of your time to write a friend or relative. I alway have liked to write letters. GOD bless you. (((Hugs))) to all of the OWG girls. Love you all.

I've never been a fan of WWII settings but I can't wait to read "The Letter"! Kathy, you did a great job with the illustrations you chose for this post--it just makes the story come to life. This is a long awaited day and I'm happy and excited for you Debbie Lynne, but I have to agree with Julie (Lessman) that this sounds like a future Hallmark movie. <br />When I was living alone during my college years, one time I received a package in the mail from my grandmother which was a complete surprise. It held thermal drapes for the window, and a set of sheets for my bed. Since I was scraping by on part-time jobs, I can't tell you how luxurious those simple gifts felt to me. It was like Christmas although it wasn't anywhere near December. I'm looking forward to reading your story and finding out how a letter changes everything for the widow and her mother-in-law. <br />Congratulations, dear friend! Thanks, Kathy, for hosting this launch! <br />Linore Rose Burkard, Novelisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15927467483596900030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-63328498603522621492014-12-02T00:19:21.717-05:002014-12-02T00:19:21.717-05:00A very big congrats. momtr3(at)yahoo(dot)comA very big congrats. momtr3(at)yahoo(dot)comBonnie Traherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752692279925939407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-28698151522457871192014-12-01T23:27:23.180-05:002014-12-01T23:27:23.180-05:00Congratulations on the launch!

Since she lived in Southern California, she brought the coat for my mom as a gift, on a visit back East.After my mom passed, I sent the coat back to the friend for her granddaughter, who now lived in a state, that got lots of snow.It was a cherished gift passed down through the generations.<br />denannduvall(at)gmail(dot)comDenisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15096299164024429829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-17012096148214940482014-12-01T22:27:32.944-05:002014-12-01T22:27:32.944-05:00I do love a launch party.

Needless to say Christmas wasn't very Merry that year. Six months later while going through her cards, I found one addressed to me in her handwriting. It was a Christmas card but she never sent it. I will treasure it always.<br />Janet E.<br />von1janet(at)gmail(dot)comLibrary Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04453047929043510049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-71781925401869326272014-12-01T21:15:04.703-05:002014-12-01T21:15:04.703-05:00thanks for the kind words, I do treasure it...
