I lost my Mom 18 years ago, when I was only 29 years old. One of the biggest regrets I have had is I never had the desire to learn to sew or anything while she was alive. A couple of years ago my Dad made me a beautiful wood stand for my fish aquarium. My step Mom knew that there was some wooden spools in a trunk that my Dad has of his and my Moms stuff, so when my dad got ready to put handles on my aquarium she got out the wooden spools and gave them to my dad to use for the handles. This was such a special touch on this. Everytime I look at my stand I know I got a very special gift from my Dad, Stepmom and my mama.
