I displayed my great-grandmother's cocoa pot on the mantel in the living room for years and it was always a "you'd better not knock that down and break it." Why I didn't place it where it was less likely to get tunked, I don't know. My son even went so far as to ask me once if I'd still love him if he did break the cocoa pot. Yikes.<BR/><BR/>So these are good lessons learned and good lessons shared. Thank you, Miss Sandy! <BR/><BR/>I'm still eager to know what ottoman you'll decide upon.Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6344281177154314706.post-73090650019212764382009-02-06T11:32:00.000-06:002009-02-06T11:32:00.000-06:00Hi Sandy, I love this post and the story about the...Hi Sandy, I love this post and the story about the rugs. That's wonderful news that you and hubby agreed on a headboard so quickly. Can't wait to see the final results. We've made a few changes with paint lately and moved Nalley's office to what was Mother's sitting room. Some of our choices with flooring etc. are made because of Harriet. She was older when we got her and occasionally has "accidents" but when I remember all the happiness that Harriet brought Mother and now Nalley, I don't mind a bit. Years from now, a floor won't hold any special memories for me, but Harriet's unconditional love for us will. Best wishes with the updates - have a good weekend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
