My grandmother loved to read, knit and crochet. When she began to lose her vision, reading became impossible. Yet she could still knit and crochet. She would count the stitches in her head and could tell by the feel of the piece if her stitches were correct. Sometimes she would miss a stitch and she would wait for us to come by and look at it for her. I would pull out the stitches and she would start again! She spent hours making baby caps for the babies in the hospital and dish cloths for anyone that would take them! Your picture brought back those memories and how much I miss those dish cloths!

Yes, I first heard ...Thank you, Ann, for this post. Yes, I first heard of the shooting at noon, while at work. My co-workers and I felt so affected, as we work with young, vulnerable children. I can't imagine how it would be to live through this. My heart IS broken for the beautiful, lovely, children, and their parents, as well as the brave teachers.<br />I've been following the news since<br />My son, who you know is a teacher, chatted with me last night as well, he felt a sense of shock...we in Canada feel this deeply.<br />We have to ask ourselves how we can protect the vulnerable from individuals with personality disorders, which make them so unpredictable. I believe gun control would be part of the solution.<br /> The Pay it Forward part of this post was a good idea.<br />BrendaMullin Avenue Workshophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09489785153205822301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7739016997337290595.post-60812963444153454502012-12-15T00:18:39.660-05:002012-12-15T00:18:39.660-05:00The loss of those so young and innocent is indeed ...The loss of those so young and innocent is indeed a tragedy and should never happen... your sentiments are lovely, and "paying it forward" is a beautiful way to spread goodness...
