A New Stocking to Love

The stockings are hung by my chimney with care
And thanks to my Mom, all 7 are there!!

Growing up each member of my family had their own handmade stocking on display every Christmas. My mom has since made stockings for each member of our families now - yes, me, my sisters, our husbands and each of her 10 grandchildren. I can't even imagine the countless number of hours she has invested into these treasured gems!

Today Jonathan received his special stocking. When Abby & James came home from school, they noticed the new addition immediately. All of the kids hovered around it ooh'ing and ahh'ing, talking about how much they love their stockings. Thank you so much Mom!
