On the Third Day of Christmas....



One the THIRD day of Christmas my true love [Grandmother] gave to me.... A Scarf & a Purse!




My grandmother, Ganny is truly an amazing women.
Who doesn't think their grandmother isn't amazing???
To read about her, and understand her a little better... Read GANNY!
Ganny never was a rich woman, she didn't need to be!
She showed everyone in her family what love was and how to give!
Ganny had 17 grand children & 3 great grand children when she left for heaven 5 years ago.
She had many many talents. Sewing, Crocheting, & knitting were one of them!
She crocheted me this beautiful scarf & purse!

I don't really use the purse, but you will never find it tucked away!
It's always hanging in my closet, there with the scarf through all seasons!
I see to always wear the scarf when something happens and I need to feel close to her!
Even during Georgia's hot, humid, summer!

On everything she has ever made... which a whole bunch of stuff,
You will aways find this label inside...
Made Especially for you
Ganny

It's definitely the greatest gift ever!
It was made with her hands, & made with her love!
