SANDRA

                                                               Sandra



I’ve begun to catch my breath, and I’m eager to share a little about one of the most wonderful women our Lord ever created.

We speak more days than not.  I’m that blessed. 

I took today to write about her because, after having to clear out a storage box of treasures that became wet when rain poured in under my front door, I found the yo-yo pin she made me long ago. 

It’s not going back in that box, either.  I’ve already hung it on my “friends” wall.  If you’ve never made a yo-yo, take it from me, it’s not as easy as it appears.  Especially if you make several hundred to sew together into a quilt!  But, if you’re gifted, like my friend, Sandra (she doesn’t like being called Sandy) its pure pleasure.  That is, until your hands begin to ache from the tedious and repetitive motion.

If they do, I hope, like her, you just let go of that fun part of your life and look for something else to do to bless others, while enjoying yourself.  

She seemingly can’t be licked.  Not no way.  Not no how.

  1. She has been gifted with sewing skills for sure and somewhere around this house I have a few of those yo-yo's swatches that I've kept and will cherish for always.💗 I would also like to say that she has a heart the size of Texas,and even though she has a twin brother, God has made her unique in her ability to love without holding grudges or having conditions. She loves all people, young and old, as well as all animals. Her greatest love in this life is Jesus and anyone who knows her has heard her say that knowing Him is her greatest Joy. She shares this Joy with others every chance that she has. Praise God.
    Lastly, being her daughter and being on the receiving end of her unconditional love and huge heart for almost 52yrs is one of the greatest blessings in my life.
    I am thankful and blessed to call her Mom.
    Thank you so much Linda for including Mother in your blog, she will be thrilled, we love you dear friend.
