I didn’t see this picture when I first read this. You look like a teenager! I just read the tear jerking comment you left on my blog today. You are just too precious for words Sharon! Can I adopt you to be my sister too? I am so glad you enjoyed the picture of my dad. I do know what you mean about praying to your loved ones. I did something the other day that I will share with you. I have my mother-in-law’s old wooden cookie jar that I got after she passed away. It is the cookie jar that she would put the salerno butter cookies with the hole in the middle in. It still has the smell after all these years. I wrote a note to my MIL and put it in the cookie jar. Gee, I miss her.

I think this was a GREAT idea! The girls seemed so excited on Christmas Eve to hear their gift.. and then seeing the photos, I can tell they loved it! Now off to the bowling alley with the BOYS! All 7 of them!

What a beautiful day… and a wonderful gift! I haven’t ice skated in YEARS, but it’s something I used to do every winter with my dad. I hope it’s something that Luke and I can do together when he is older. I also hope ice skating is like riding a bike, otherwise I’ll be doing a lot of falling.;)

Sharon, you are just too perfect for words. What an awesome gift! How neat that you can share such a time with the girls and they will never forget this. I think it’s extra awesome too that you and your hubby are still able to ice skate. You go girl!

What a wonderful gift! I know they will treasure their charms and bracelets, but mostly, they will remember the time you spent with them.

Your story is exceptionally, extraordinarily wonderful (my discriptives). It resonates with me in so many waysp; Ice skating on frozen ponds and rivers was one of the joys of my CT childhood. I also loved my charm bracelet more than any other gift. I have no little girls in my life so this was the next best thing.
