I ended up giving 'Posy' to the girl we watched growing up from when she was 6 to her now being 28 with a 6 month old baby. She calls hubby and I honorary grandparents. She is down here visiting her mom and dad for 2 weeks. Her hubby is in the Coast Guard and stationed in Alaska. I told her the gift was for the little girl we woman all have inside us. She loved it. I told her maybe some day she will be able to pass it down to her daughter to have.
I know she will always treasure and care for it. Every year till she turned 18, I made something for her for her birthday, and always took time to spend with her, when I could. Her parents have been good neighbors.
