I'm wondering why so many harsh comments about "another holiday"? Anytime I can find a reason to acknowledge anyone in my life is a time of joy. I never had grandparents (all died before I was born), and would welcome someone to treat special on a special day. You guessed it...........none of my 10 grands, or 1 gr grand remembered me or their grandpa. So I went to a quilt retreat! Who's the winner here?
