“To my A #1 Valentine!” | Grandma’s Stories

Feb 14th “To my A #1 Valentine!”

Nothing like your one and only “A #1 VALENTINE” to be the “LOVE” of your LIFE, forever! The above photo was taken when we lived in FLORIDA – and while we were sitting on the sofa – someone wanted to take our picture and am I forever grateful – that this picture – just taken in “FUN” – as I was playing with little Lee, Jr. – who may have been around two years of age – on the right side of this photo.

The “newspaper clipping – “MY LOVER” by “Ben Burroughs” – was something that I clipped from the news-paper – because I thought that it applied to us – as sometimes – and only at the right time in LIFE – when everything – that has been previously … pre-ordained … and the “TIME” is right in the COSMOS – do you run into the “SOUL-MATE” – that was especially chosen for you – even though – your “TIME” together here on earth – just will not be forever. “For a very short TIME” here and then later – be together and only then, forever!” So, I am so HAPPY – even if it was for a very short time – and that the MEMORIES” will last till that day that we will meet again!”

The dress that I am wearing is one that I made. That dress called for six yards of material – as seen – – – the “skirt” has all that material – it really makes you feel like a “MILLION” – just so terrific! The pattern also had a version for a straight skirt – and I made several – with the straight skirt – is solid colors – nice and simple and so good for working – so business like, when you are tall and thin – – you could always look just right for any work place! Back then, my waist measurement was 19 inches – – it is not 19 inches any more – must be the cake and or the ice cream??

“HAPPY VALENTINE’s DAY – Lee !” I am hoping that all the young “LOVERS” of this world are always in LOVE with the “One and ONLY LOVE” – and will always be in LOVE, forever! LOVE for another does take lots of hard work – – but with LOVE, you can do it – I know – – and I know that you can do it, too!
